Hi folks, We just traded for an 01 cherokee sport and I have some ???. The jeep has a 3 1/2" lift on front and 2" shackle lift on rear. The previous owner did this to compensate for the winch bumper and 10,000lb winch mounted on the front. The jeep sits level. The steering wheel is turned a 1/4 turn when driving straight. Can this be fixed by an alignment or is it something more that has to do with the lift? It doesnt have the death wobble, just a vibration in steering wheel.....Thanks, Roy

Thank you for the link. We are going to try this tomorrow after work...

Adjusting the drag link is super easy, just be prepared to have to adjust it and drive it several times before you get it perfect.

yep, can be time consuming. however, if done carefully it can be done right the first try

Really? I would like to see that. Even alignment shops with fancy laser alignment systems still have trouble getting the steering wheel aligned perfectly. Seems like there is just enough slack in any steering system to make fine tuning with trial and error a must... if you want it perfect. I dunno...

ive done it. Guess ive got a better understanding of backlash than the local alignment monkeys
