Hi guys and gals,

I need some help getting my front axle lined up. It seems to be off by a couple inches to the right. How can I line this bad boy up? In the pics you can see what i'm talking about. The right wheel is pushed out. The left wheel looks ok.

i dont know if its the right way to do it when i put my lift on the axle ****ed like 5 inches when my dumb cousin pl;ayed with the steering wheels when everything was disconnected..i put it in reverse and shook the wheel like crazy nad it centered itself

That's odd. Seems it would have pulled it towards the drivers side. You might need an adjustable trac bar. JMO

Last year I was trying to fix a loose steering issue and clunking noise I was getting when I hit bumps and such. I got new tie rods, track bar, stabilizer bar, control arm bushings and more recently adjustable control arms. Would it make sense to put the front end of jack stands and remove all the parts and put them back (hopefully properly)?

First I'd measure from center to center of the wheels on both sides to see if the control arms are adjusted properly, or if they are the cause of this. They may have the axle moved farther forward on one side. JMO

You could just save some $$ and do a trackbar relocation.

Interesting indeed.

Nah, the control arms aren't the cause. This was like this before I put in the adjustable control arms. I couldn't figure out how to move the axle so I left it until today to work on.

Are you sure the tires are the same width? the tread appears different.

The track bar is the problem I tired of crawling around with my laser light so eye-balled it. Soundsa like you need different offset wheels also
