Title: steering wheel out of true
Post by: puggy on February 11, 2008, 11:30:04 AM

Hello all ,I have a 97 XJ 4.0 and have just fitted a 3"lift kit ,having done the front I moved the track bar over until the tyres protruded the same both sides of the vehicle , how can I get the steering wheel straight again, I am sure I have read a thread on this somewhere on the tech forum but cant find it now.

Cheers Puggy

Need to adjust the drag link  
Best to adjust the tiebar though first, as after a lift, you'll be toeing in. The best way to do that is to take it to your local tyre place.
