Hmmm, I don't like the sound of that, my UCA's are maxed for caster adjustment and im not quite even to factory spec....
Yeah, aftermarket UCA allow for that kind of caster adjustment.

Yeah, just not in the budget right now.... Especially when I need tires! Arrg.
How bad was it on your 4r?
I don't know how the share that... I'm very particular and require that my vehicles drive perfectly straight. My notes are not handy buy my memory is that it would change lanes in 5-7 seconds with 'hands off' the wheel.
I had a conversation with Cooper at SEMA this year about several things concerning STMaxx and other tires using the 3-ply carcass...
Right pull was one of the things that we talked about specifically. I just put a new set of 255/85R16 STMaxx's on my TJ, and I was happy to note that they do not seem to pull at all. (I drove it to SEMA and back, ~1000mi, so I'm confident that there is no pull at this point.) He could come up with no reason that the tires would pull on some vehicles, and not on others. (Expo reports of pulling thus far on Redline's IFS toyota, your 80 series, and on KojackJKU's JK unlimited, in various sizes I believe.)snip...
Ok thanks, Im used to driving a twitchy truck already at this point, although I will get UCA's at some point, I just don't want it to be worse than it is.
And a good alignment shop CAN fix it with the alignment using the balljoints...
1stDeuce, after tire rotations or just swapping fronts it still pulls right. On a fairly flat road, doing 40 mph, if I let go of the steering wheel the jeep will be in the shoulder in 75-100 feet. The jeep will drive nice, no hands no wonder, if I'm traveling on a left crowned road surface. The steering wheel center has been maintained closely during each alignment with the AEV ProCal and checked just yesterday. I will dig out my last alignment print out from the glove box and post tomorrow. I hope its not the AEV Lift. I wish I kept my stock tires. I could swap and compare.
