I noticed that my front end is shiffted to the passenger side. Any idea's why this is?

 

Without some details I'm going to say you need an adjustable trackbar.

 

Well I just put a new one in and had to pull the front axle over to the drivers side to get the new one to line up. Before I had to pry the axle to the passenger side to get it out. So I'm still kinda at a loss.

 

Do you have any pix of the front end as it is right now, chris?

 

Not yet but I will get some front shots and one from each side if that helps.

 

Sounds good, chief. Post as much as you can of the axle and related steering and suspension components and let's see what you're working with.

 

I hope this helps.

 

Chris, have you owned this XJ for long? It looks like the drivers side LCA (lower control arm) mount (body end) had sheared off in the past and been re-welded out-of-line...is the passenger side LCA mount like this also? This may account for your issue.

I would make certain by a qualified welder that that LCA mount is welded very well.

I'm referring to the 6th image you posted.

 

Yeah I have and the guy that had it before me was going to turn it into rock crawler . And yes both sides look like that. I will check the measurements against one of our other jeeps and see what they are. And I am sure that it is not done buy a certified welder or even some that is close. I repaired welding machines for some time and that looks like a stick weld or way to much heat with a mig welder ether way it looks like umm sh** . Hell I can do way better then that lol. So if they are off I should be able to get new brackets and reset them? Thanks for the extra eye on this 4WD4EVER

 

Looks good otherwise under there, way cleaner that what we have up here up Nawth. Even got the original flag nut on the track bar end.

 

Thanks. As for the nut still holding in there but I am sure it wont be long tell I have to replace it.I did have to change out the bolt,not to ez finding a 10mm 1.5 strong enough for the job. Funny thing is I found one at the hardware store lol.

 

Well, chris, assuming the trackbar mount hasn't been boogered-up and the trackbar is the correct one, I would focus on taking some measurements on the lca mounts, both body and axle end, compared to another XJ. It's difficult to tell from just side-angle shots but, something tells me this is where the issue probably is. It has no lift on it so everything should be lining up and square.

 

I will check both mounts and the track bar should be oem it is a direct replacement.
