This is called rear toe (I said wtf first time the alignment shop said they adjusted it). Essentially, the toe should be identical side to side, meaning the axle is perfectly parallel to the front axle. My arms were set to the same length, but it was still off. Once adjusted, it no longer pulled.

My adjustable rear track bar just arrived, I'm installing it tonight when I get home. After I get my axle exactly centered(close as possible ) then I'll let you know. As of now the prob has not been solved. Next step will be to even out the caster on both side instead of the factory .03* difference. I have a procal and I know my steering wheel is exactly centered. I'll post later tonight

Toe would be like the front, tires closer together in the front or rear. All JK's seem to have toe in the rear which is not adjustable.
Correct me if im wrong !!!

Adj Rear track bar installed, rear axle is centered to 1/32 of an inch. "Pulling to the left" is still there, but I can notice a difference. It is better, but definitely still pulling. Change lanes in less than 3 secs at 65mph. Any thoughts??
Wheel base is perfect left to right.

What size and kind of tires do you have on the rig again?
