Ordered right and left quarter panels and a HD Rock Krawler tie rod since the PO added some extra clearance with a jack on the stock one. It is bent up a good 4-6 inches
amazingly it drove well and didn't burn the front tires off when I brought it home

Ordered a JKS track bar this morning because it looked like I needed it. Went and got the front put back together. Looks good. Rides about the same except takes bumps nicer. Didn't get the WJ control arms in but I think those will help too. My axle is centered nicely with the jeep so I tried to cancel my JKS track bar order having issues with that. Better than jeep issues.

Took a screw outta the tire and did a quick plug. Damn destinations are thick. Hold a screw well and keep air in. Drove probably 120 miles on that.
Also bled the rear brakes via gravity. Crazy how dark used fluid is lol. Wanted to do the fronts also but passenger bleeder was frozen and i had other stuff to do so ill revisit those this weekend. Gotta say though, bleeding rear calipers suck with leafs lol
