I agree it does seem a little counter intuitive, but it will drive straight as an arrow when you hit the toe-out mark just right. Its a very fine line between too much and too little though. Make take a couple attempts to get it right

Update! Moved the tires around to make sure it wasn't out of balance tires causing the pull. It still pulls right. Before I start messing with my toe I'll see if changing the balljoints does anything. Again this is not a flighty feeling at all if I hold my steering wheel straight the jeep drives straight. When I let go the steering wheel starts moving to the right

I run mine at 28 PSI, 1/8" toe in. Mine are pretty nicely balanced. May a very slight pull to the right but it's not much at all. I don't fight it all while driving.

Have not heard that toe out will help anything.

Check your ball joints before you just swap them out. They may be ok.

Yeah same here with regards to psi and toe. I definitely have to fight it while driving though

Passenger side lower is toast. I was going to change them before putting the tires on but never had the time

Mud tires like to follow the crown of the road. Mine pulls slightly to the right also but if I'm in the left lane it pulls to the left. Is what it is.
