Question on Alignment.

[Lance126]

Installed my lift and did a simple alignment check in it, no biggy. But figured I should have it actually aligned by a shop. Did that last Tuesday . All the numbers came back and they said everything was good. Driving is fine no vibrations no wondering or pulling but last night I was under the Jeep poking around and noticed my adjustable control arms were set to different lengths, like 3/4” different... so then I started “measuring” things.... and my front end seems “off”. I know a stick rule isn’t going to tell me if my alignment is right but after taking said measurements my front end sits to the left of center by 1/2-3/4” and the drivers side sits 1/2-3/4” further back than the passenger side. I also had installed an adjustable track at with the lift so my “assumption would be that the front end should fairly “square” with the frame...i installed the lifts on my heels and never noticed the difference in length in the lower control arms...so....is it just me or does something seem off.
Thanks for you input

I don’t trust alignment shops unless they have experienced Jeepers working there. A tech who just turns bolts until the computer turns green can send your Jeep down the road sideways. I personally align mine with a tape measure, and only put it on a machine if I have drivability issues.

how would I know my Jeep needs an alignment?
