Oh yes, took it to three different shops to have it align, didn't make a difference. My caster was off and that's why I installed the adjustable lower control arms. I got fed up trying to resolve it.

Right on. Had to check though, I was really shocked how much of a difference the alignment did on mine. I had tried to set all my adjustable stuff (front lower control arms, drag link, tie-rod, trackbar) properly myself in the garage, and the alignment guy said I got close, but after they got it dialed in it was night and day difference. When I took it in I was expecting him to tell me I needed new ball joints and a new steering gear box, by how loose everything felt, but he said they were all good, and now it drives properly again, and doesn't feel like a worn out old pickup truck.

Am I the only one who gets confused anytime someone asks about a "TF 2.5in lift with shocks"? I'm always scratching my head and wondering, which one are we talking about?

Glad you got yours resolved. What was the issue though? Was it the track back adjustment, control arms, tie rod? I tried adjusting my TF track bar and didn't do much. My AEV geometry correction bracket along with my TF lower control arms and upgraded drag link did add some assistance, but still has that pull to the left but less "flighty". I thought maybe I had too much air pressure on my tires, but they seem fine.

Man, you guys really confuse me, here you knock the TF kit's, else where they like the TF kit's. I think if you buy a kit for a 4 dr and it's properly installed the TF kit is fine. If your budget is more then by all means spend more and that will be fine as well. I've saw where guys install the RC kit's and are happy so it just depends on the OP and what they want to do with it.
If your rock crawling then that's a different budget altogether and in another category.

I agree. There are some real rock crawlers out there, but most are like me and the toughest thing they will do is medium trails at best. I have done trails like the rubicon and dusy ershim and both are easily doable with a mild 2.5 lift. with a 2.5 lift you don't even need an adjustable front track bar as my track is less than a 1/4" off. 3 of us did the Rubicon on 2.5 lifts (I rk and 2 AEV lifts) and never had an issue it was so much fun the next year 2 of us returned and did the dusy. I drove from Montana and my buddy from Ohio so for us driving at 80mph comfortably was more important than getting the last little bit of rock crawling ability. We did not carry any spares at all so reliability was important as well.
