Got my wife's jeep with the lift already installed. She's been reporting some wander issues and minor DW.... Think this caster angle has anything to do with it ...... Lol. Time for some new CA's
Nevermind no adjustable trac bar or even bracket on the front

Looks like some ACA's or AEB drop brackets are getting ordered.
Never had a vehicle off caster by 4.5 to 6 degrees. Holy hell

The Teraflex 2.5" spring lift (which is typically around 3" or more I guess) comes with nothing for the front. No trackbar or bracket, no lower control arms. Nothing.
