i havent seen these before and i came across them... just wondering if they are ever really needed? i dont see how lift or anything would make you need them unless you bent something...

Alignments only go out if somthing is bent or broken. For camber to be out on the front of a jeep would mean you have either bent the knuckle or one of your ball joints is failing, both of which you would need to replace. So cambered ball joints. I dont think so. It was a good idea but if you fix what is wrong it shouldnt be an issue on our strait axle. Ha

 

thats what i was thinking... i just wanted to make sure i wasnt missing anything... lol... i hadnt ever seen them... they probly were made for another vehicle and someone noticed they fit the jeeps too or something...

 

I remember hearing the adjustable ones give you 1-2° more articulation. Unless yours are shot, don't worry about it because swapping them out takes a long day with a big hammer.

 

how the crap did you make that little circle? lol...

 

I had to put one in my xj. Old axle was out 2 1/2 degrees on both sides, went and got new axle from jy and one side was out just enough that i needed it. It fixed it. Mine was more expensive than that at Orielys though

 

hhmm... makes me wonder if there easy to tweak... folks just dont know it maybe...

 

type in degree to wiki and copy and paste or %%d

 

%%d ?

 

yea besides the ball joints there is not adjustment for it. Thats another thing that gets me . I went to go have pro align my jeep and they wanted to charge me 75$ I looked at him and said sir there is only one adjustment and if anything it is only about 1/16 of an inch out you are really wanting to charge me that much for that? He said "Yes son becuase your jeep is all Jacked up"

 

You use the codes where you hold down the alt button and type a number then release the alt key the code for the degree symbol is "Press and hold the ALT key and type the number 0176"

 

yeah there $65 here and i hate paying that much for the jeep... mines been out since i got the jeep... pulls hard right... but tires wear fine so i aint doing it till i have to... lol... hope its after a lift

 

well from factory i was told they were suppose to pull a little bit to the right so if somebody fell asleep it would pull to the right off the road instead of oncoming traffic. but that is just what i was told

 

I want mine aligned because my steering wheel isn't straight, and I'd rather not mess with the air bag to fix it.

 

°... cool... i had to use the number buttons on the side of the keyboard though... wouldnt work with the reg numbers... i think i knew about this back when AOL first came out and i was always IMing folks i didnt know... and talking in chat rooms... lol... just forgot all about it...
