Installed a TF 2.5" coil lift on my 2 door Rubi. Front, 3" over stock; Rear, 2" over stock. Installed adjustable TB front/rear as well as front LCAs and rear UCAs. In addition, I installed Fox 2.0 shocks and the Fox ATS SS. I also changed out all the TB and CA bolts with the Synergy and NR 4x4 bolt upgrade. Overall, the ride feels more firm and tracks straight (no pull/drift) and no vibrations or wobble. Running the stock MT tires for a while. Thanks in advance

Right Rear

Thrust Angle: 0.00

 

Looking good

 

Nice. I was surprised everything on the front end fell into the green (gray in the rear?). The shop here in Colorado Springs does alot of Jeeps and I just wanted to make sure they were GTG for piece of mind; especially since I will be hitting the road next month when I move to OK.

 

Def looks good. It would be more trouble than it is worth to try and match the caster in the front but that is such a minimal difference from side to side that it doesn't matter.

The reason it is Gray in the rear is because the alignment machines are programmed to align a completely stock Jeep which has no rear adjustment from the factory so the machine says those numbers don't matter and they will be Grey to specify that.

Enjoy your rig!

 

Jump master, what shop did you have do your alignment? I am in Woodland Park and am putting a lift on in a couple weeks and will need an alignment afterwards.

 

The alignment was done at Courtesy Automotive on 210 South 8th St. The service manager was very cool and explained things To me in detail. I do almost all of my business with Predator 4x4 and thats who they recommended. I would use them again if I was not moving.

 

Thanks Smashboogie. I will hold onto my alignment paperwork for reference in case I ever have to fix/replace any suspension components. Probably shoot for caster of 4.3-4.5 on both sides next time. Does that sound ideal? BTW, does the "steer ahead" in the front represent how center the front axle is and "thrust angle" for the rear axle? Thanks.

 

With caster what works for you might not work for someone else. Depending on the lift height and other variables depends on what the best setting will be. You will need to find a happy medium with your caster and front pinion angle.

The "steer ahead" just means that the wheels are pointing straight. In other words it is possible to have your front wheels pointing to the left but still have you toe in spec. Obviously the steering wheel would be way off center.

The "thrust angle" is the same as the steer ahead just in the rear. If your thrust angle is off then the Jeep will always want to crab down the road. The only way you would be able to adjust your thrust angle is with both upper and lower adjustable control arms.

 

Thanks for the breaking it down for me

 

No problem glad we could help!
