check out the writeups and perhaps adjust your tow. could also be a bad tire on the left pulling you, crown in the road, axles not centered right.

You're right. Didn't even notice. Should be closer to 4-5degrees. Nothing you can do without CAs though. With a BB you shouldn't really need CAs.

its a coil lift drove straight before new coils. just was a super hard ride had a 2"spacer lift. Now the ride is super smooth but the damn thing wants to switch lanes right away. There are no vibrations. tires look fine. Ill bring it back tomorrow i just wanted to maybe get some insite cause i dont know all the terminology at all. Thanks for all the replies so far

I'd your tires aren't directional, put the left on the right and the right on the left and drive the same roads.

oh well still the same. I found a guy who I should have just brought it too in the first place that sais he can get it right. Said throw in your adj control arms then bring it back. Im still waiting for the lowers probably next weekend ill throw them in. So much fun

I say it's your caster that's affecting your pull. You should be more like +4.2 to 5.0 for caster. Is this a TF coil lift? If so you will need some Adj Front Lower control arms as these lifts typically give you over +3" of lift.

bought all 8 control arms and front and rear driveshafts this better do it. Jeep is nice to look at but hell to drive at the moment. <<<< hates this love to drive my jeep. I hope to have all the stuff by next weekend ill get the control arms on. Then have the guy I found throw on the driveshafts (might be out of my realm) and adjust everyhting he seemed pretty confident that he could fix this
