Alignment results left me with a questionable recommendation.
Here are the results from Les Schwab.
Front:
Caster Left: 6.1 Right: 6.4
Camber Left: -.8 Right: -.9
Toe Left: .05 Right: .15
Total Toe: .20
Rear:
Camber Left: -.6 Right: -.5
Toe Left: -.45 Right: .75
Total Toe: .30
Thrust Angle: -.6
I can tell by the variances that this is certainly not ideal. They said I need new ball joints and an alignment. I am not confident with this recommendation.
I have installed a 4" Superlift. JKS lower control arms, front and rear track bars, and quicker disconnects. Running 35" Nittos on an 18" XD wheel.
Hoping to get some guidance to get this bad boy dialed in for trail season!
Thanks for any tips!

The caster is decent for your lift height.
The camber is borderline/out of spec, and you will need adjustable balls 'if' you decide to correct it. Either way, C gussets would be a good idea to keep the c's from bending any further.
