Is an alignment necessary? (I haven't driven it yet and I'm pretty sure my steering wheel is in the same location as before I did the lift)

And they forgot my rear trackbar bracket. However, it was only off by like a 1/4" and I just pulled on it and it lined up. Do I even need it?

 

You should not need an alignment and the track bar bracket is really up to you. I was off a bit more and got it, but 1/4" should not be noticable, however it may move over a little more after you dive it some.

 

How will I be able to tell?

 

If you're drifting slowly into the drivers lane on level road then it's a bit off or if the steering wheel is cocked a little to one side (Jeep logo). Mine is now tracking straight with the new 35's but I'm still getting it aligned this weekend just because I know new tires give a false sense of alignment for a while till the wear down some. I'm putting in my rear track bar brkt tomorrow prior alignment just to line the rear back where it's supposed to be.

The alignment can actually be done yourself, it's not that hard, but that's another subject.

 

You DO NOT need an alignment but you MAY find it necessary to center your steering wheel. Click on the link below to see how to do this:

Regarding the track bar bracket, no, you do not need it but it will help to recenter your axle under your Jeep.

x3 I ran this lift without the rear bracket for about 10K and it was fine. I had a little flightiness on the highway, but nothing terrible. My rear axle was off about 5/8", I think the bracket is worth installing, but not absolutely necessary.

(Thanks Teraflex Joe! I got the bolt)

 

WOL is right on the money. You don't need an alignment...assuming of course it was aligned correctly before you began.

 

Drove it to work this morning and the steering wheel is completely centered! Woo. Teraflex is gonna send me the bracket so I'll just throw it on when it gets here.

 

I thought the bracket was included with the TF BB, is this not the case? I only ask because this is what I was about to order!
