My parts came to in a few days. I'm going g to build disconnects out of the stock front sway bar links and lengthening the rear soon. Parts in the garage together now waiting to weld up.

Got the new steel sleeves from Daystar and these are the correct size. I will be selling this 2" lift locally, never installed.

Makes you wonder about their quality control.

It is my opinion that store-bought alignments are overrated and overpriced. Your Jeep’s toe-in is not affected by lifting, only the steering center. The castor is not adjustable unless you go with adjustable arms. Recenter your steering yourself and you’re all set. Mine only required 1/4 turn with the 2” lift.

I got the lift installed and my steering wheel is slightly off like you mentioned. Can you give a newbie more details on what bolt or what I need to do to get it back to center?

There is a 15mm bolt on the draglink which locks down the adjustment collar. Loosen the bolt, then adjust the collar to lengthen or shorten the drag link as needed, then tighten the bolt back. I find it easiest to have the wheels straight, then adjust the draglink until the steering wheel is straight. It shouldn’t take a lot of adjustment.

FYI for anyone installing this lift, you may want to use blue locktite on the swaybar link bolts. Mine keep loosening.
