Also, if adjusting the track bar doesent fix my problem, will adding lca shims effect my alignment at all?

Alright so i adjusted my track bar again today and it dident help. So i was thinking about just doing shims on the lca's but instead im just going to do new upper and lower adj control arms. Does anyone have any experence with any company's adj control arms? I know IRO has has some that have bushings on each end and clayton has some that have johnny joints.

Right. But in an earlier post i was told that if the axle was off center it could cause the perch to hit my coil spring. So i want new control arms to push the axle foreward some more. Ive measured from the axle lca bracket to the frame lca bracket and it is the same distance on both driver and pass side. And heres some pics of the wheen in the wheel well. Not sure what pics you wanted of the control arms though. There just regular fixed tubular lca's and stock uca's.

Tires are not strait in pics. There turned towards the driver side a little.
