Did you get an alignment after your lift?
Alignment after liftzerodown 02-11-2008, 10:37 AM Did you get an alignment after your lift? HueyPilotVN 02-11-2008, 10:45 AM I got an alignment at the same time as they installed the lift but they did say that the front end had to be adjusted. I had mine installed by a local tire company and bought the tires and the spidertrax spacers installed at the same time. The tech that installed it has a jeep and had no problem installing the Rocky Road 2.5 inch lift. He took most of a day to do it. The tires and install cost for the lift was under $1,000. I think it was around $650 for the tires, (Bridgestone) and $350 for the lift install, spacers install and alignment. The lift was $296 plus shipping, and the spidertrax 1.5 inch spacers were about $240 with shipping included. Hope that helps. CrzCajun 02-11-2008, 10:58 AM Yes, definitely need to get it realigned. Had mine realigned and the shop that did it said that it was definitely off. HEMI 02-11-2008, 05:41 PM Definitely needs to be done sciron4x4 02-12-2008, 05:13 AM Good to know! On my ZJ, I always just did the tape-measure routine to adjust the toe in/out and realign the steering wheel, etc. With IFS, I'm imagining it's quite a bit different routine. shredX 02-12-2008, 03:52 PM I think you have your answer, but I'll chime in ... yes. JJSEBASTIAN 02-12-2008, 05:22 PM Tow in and camber both need to be adjusted. You will notice a difference in the handling. I sure did. PolarBZ 02-16-2008, 06:50 PM My dealer (who did my lift) said it was WAY off after the lift... so, I'd get it done. sciron4x4 02-17-2008, 04:51 AM The shop I got mine done at said he "only had specs for factory alignment". I told him to do it anyways, as I'm sure it'd be fine. Got it back, and it rides like a charm. | |
