Can anyone point me to a shop here local which is experienced with lifted jeep alignments? I especially need caster adjusted and one of my control arms needs to be adjusted a little out to extend wheelbase as one tire isn't centered. I just had shoulder surgery so I can't do it and need the jeep running

First, what model jeep you have ? Cuz straight axle jeeps can be aligned at home with wrench and tape measure ! :)
I set mine at 1/8" toe-in. Others prefer 3/16" or even 1/4" toe-in. ;)
With a straight axle, thats about all that can be adjusted, by you or someone you PAY ! :)I may be Rad and I may be Bad :pbj: but I am never SAD ! :kilt:
Yea I'm *Q*C* and ?
it is a great feeling to have served your country and walk PROUD

I'm curious to how you go about doing an alignment yourself? I just bought my first jeep (xj) and been pretty addicted to it so far. I got a few quotes and $70-100 seems high. plus if im off roading often then this is probly something I will be doing frequently. If anyone knows a good spot in midtown that takes care of us jeepers that would be cool too for other items that are above my capabilities.

measure between tires at front and back (at same part of sidewall) and loosen sleeve on tierod and turn it which everway it needs to turn to get the front dimention 1/8" to 1/4" less then back dimentiom .I may be Rad and I may be Bad :pbj: but I am never SAD ! :kilt:
