Drove her to work last night. Lots of popping in the front end. There's like a 1/2" play in my tie rod ends. I really need to get my iro steering and trac bar installed.. Makes me a bit nervous with all the clunking and shaking on the highway part of my drive. Oh and my wj is in the shop with the head being pulled(little above my"mechanical knowledge")... ahhhh can't just be one at a time

After putting the 2" BB on yesterday, we also installed a trac bar drop bracket. When the steering components were messed with, the alignment was thrown off and the steering wheel was rotated 1/4 of the way to the right. So, with all that said, dropped her off for an alignment...

Lol when I did my lift the wheel was turned a half to the right. And I've been driving it like that for two weeks while waiting to get the alignment done haha

The steering wheel alignment has nothing to do with your tie alignment. Ones the tie rod, the other is the drag link.
