Car Forum / Jeep / April 2004Front Alignment Specs
Group, This has probably been covered before, but what front alignment specs are use on a 2000 XJ with a 3" lift? Coils with 1.5" pucks (for the added weight of a winch & bumper) are used in the front. Thanks Group! Debbie & Norm Parsley XJ Couple 2000 Cherokee Classic They are pretty much the same. Just make sure your toe is right so you dont eat tires. someone correct me if Im wrong because mine has been fine a long time with the factory settings.

Your XJ's caster angle is fine with only a 3" lift and its camber angle is not even adjustable so no worries there either. Toe-in is important though, so make sure you keep this setting up to snuff. :) Jerry -- Jerry Bransford To email, remove 'me' from my email address N6TAY, PP-ASEL See the Geezer Jeep at http://members.cox.net/jerrypb/ > Group, > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > XJ Couple > 2000 Cherokee Classic My alignment guy could only get my caster to about 2.5 deg. without throwing the front driveshaft out of alignment on my TJ. I was hoping to get to 5 or 5.5 deg. I wonder if I should find someone else to adjust it. > Set your toe-in so the front of the tires are 1/8" closer to each other than > they are in the rear... this works extremely well for low tire wear and good [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > > Jerry  Signature___________________________________________________________ tw 03 TJ Rubicon - Rubicon Express 4.5" 01 XJ Sport There is a very fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness." -- Dave Barry Pronunciation: 'jEp Function: noun Date: 1940 Etymology: from g. p.
