I rotated my tires this morning...cause I noticed the fronts wearing out FAST along the outside edges. the squared off edges of the virtually new tires are all but gone on the fronts....figured I'd better get em rotated quick before they really got tore up.
there is a 2" spacer that the previous owner installed...would that spacer throw off the camber so bad as to chew these tires up so quickly???
I have no idea if they ever did an alignment after the lift, but I'm starting to think that they didn't.
I've done toe-in research today and plan to check that tomorrow as it seems very easy to check.....and dial in....I'm just wonderin about more complicated issues in advance.....
Thanx, Scott

You need to do a toe alignment. Camber is not adjustable on the front axle, unless you install offset balljoints... which is usually not needed except on taller XJ's.

Caster is adjusted by the length of you lower control arm, adding a 2 inch block on top of the spring will reduce you caster angle as it just made your lower control arm shorter - caster is the angle of the spring in the direction of travel. Normally set to @7 degrees on our jeeps, bottom of spring more forward than top. Caster will effect return to center, and tire angle at full lock turns. The shorter lower control arm puts your tire up on their edge more at full lock turns.
Get longer lower control ams, remove the lift, or rotate your ties more often.
