Drivability issues!
Ok 2008 Rubicon Jk with 4" lift on 37s. Noticed my front tires leaning in. Replaced upper and lower ball joints both sides and wheel hub on drivers side. Also had alignment. Prior to these parts Jeep drove perfect down the street. Now I can hardly keep it on the road. Was told needed a new trac bar! Got even worse. Im lost any suggestions?

If the tires are leaning in at the top, you have bent axle tubes. Your alignment should have shown out of spec camber values. There is no fix for this other then replacing the axle housing. However, this would not make the vehicle undriveable but rather just make the tires wear unevenly.
Being undriveable would be more in line with bad wheel alignment and a loose or worn out Trackbar.

Can you post the alignment sheet, or at least list the current specs?
