Holy Sh!t. I almost turded my pants just watching the video . I was with Marks group and after battling through a few trails and winch festing for a bit, we decided to head back towards Naches. I'm sure he'll have some updates for us after his hand recovers

It is very easy to fix. You just need to align your front wheels so they are straight (regardless of which way the steering wheel has turned). And then loosen the 2 15mm bolts holding the adjustment sleeve on the drag link. Then rotate the sleeve clockwise or counter clockwise until your steering wheel is straight. Once loose the collar may rotate freely or might require a little extra force with vice grips or channel locks.

I don't trust myself enough. You heard me say I was going to keep tight with you.... I can learn a lot from a guy like you.
Do you have a equipped garage and a place to work on your ride? I'm a bit limited to what I have.

I got you in my contacts now so I may just email you directly going forward.
Im not terribly afraid to get under the Jeep and bust a few knuckles, Im just not that good at understanding how it all goes together and I rely on this for alot of freeway driving. I like a second set of eyes around so Im not missing anything. I like to work on it and I like to help others so I would be interested in some of your projects just to learn and give a hand.
What kind of work schedule are you on?

Should be safe and out of the way now. I relocated the hardline to so they run along the top of the frame rail.
