Pulled ,y trackbar relocation bracket off and it pushed my axel slightly to the left side. It also took care of 90% of the lean I was experiencing. Now it's less than 1/2" different between left and right!

Interesting cause for that lean. Can you post a pic of how it looks now (I think you posted a pic from the "before" , didnt ye?) ?

Stop calling your car a "she". It's a car.

No prob...

Before



And after...



My theory is that having the axel off to the right side was "propping" up the right spring, and pulling down the left. Surprisingly the axel is almost exactly even under the Jeep now. My steering wheel was 90* to the left after moving the trackbar back to its original spot. It's still leaning, but it's nowhere near as bad as it was.

strange my xj has 3" pucks in it and stock track bar and leans over to the drivers side aswell.. changing to proper springs and adjustable track bar shortly will need to make sure it doesnt lean still.. i think you are probably right about the springs leaning over or possibly just the body wants to tip cos the axle isnt even under it

Should get them, posted, for less money than I payed for the ome's from arb.
Why can't I just be bloody patient?
