I just installed a Rough country 3.5" series II lift kit and got my aligment inspected
The camber is showing 0.7 degrees and was advised per the dealership that my tie rod connected to the pitman arm needs to "be turned around"
Anyone know how to fix this? I installed the tie rod with the bolt going UP through the pitman arm and wondering if it should be the other way around?

Any help would be great!

Thanks in advanced

The camber is showing 0.7 degrees off
your JK has a solid front axle and if you're camber is off, you have an axle c that is bent.

the tie rod end on your drag link can only go up through the pitman arm as the hole it goes through is tapered.

Ok Thats what i thought about the tie rod wasnt sure what they meant by it needing "to be turned around"

Hope my C's arent bent, It is a D30 but im only running stock rubi take-offs
