Not sure if this will help at all, but try switching your SS so the piston rod is pointing toward passenger side. Right now it is trying (always) pushing toward the left... Mine is mounted opposite yours and I have no pull..... Who knows, it might just work..

I think the steering stabilizer needs to be repositioned...I have the exact same AEV 3.5" lift with the high steer kit on my 2012 Unlimited running 35" and drives straight and does not pull one way or another. However I had it installed about 2 weeks ago and I had to play around with the psi on the tires because it drove kinda "darty". I ended up with 32psi on my 35's and all is perfect now. So you might check your tire pressure to and make sure there is not too much or one is less than the other.

Gonna throw something in here about the control arms. I thought the AEV lift came with brackets to correct the caster. I say thought because that is what I have read on the forum, I don't have the lift myself. Could it be possible the brackets were not put on the jeep. I cant tell from the pictures and i'm no expert.

Just remove the steering stabilizer and see if the problem goes away.
From the alignment sheet you need front lower control arms and your castor corrected. 2.5˚ is not enough.

Excuse my ignorance but What is Castor ? It shows on the the sheet 2.5 but I guess they have set it to the original specs which is before the lift , what is it supposed to be ?
