So I installed a set of core 4x4 front lower adjustable control arms and too 2015 JkU to fix caster issue. I then took it to shop to get alignment. Can anyone take a look at these numbers. It looks like he set the caster way to high. I don’t think this guy knew what he was doing. Can anyone tell me a good set of numbers for a Jeep with 2.5 inch lift with 35’s. Jeep seems a bit flighty now and I am sure it’s cause the caster is so high. IMG_3530.jpg

He adjusted your caster way too high. It should be ideally 4.2 degrees. You need to shorten those lower arms. With that being said, it shouldn't be causing a flighty feeling. Low caster causes a flighty feeling. What's your tire pressure at?

And if I were you, buy an angle gauge and do it yourself. Then you'll know that it was done right.

I use the top of the upper ball joint just because that's how I process the reading better in my mind. But the gauge is hard to see because the wheel is in the way. Eddie has a write-up here on how to do it: https://wayalife.com/showthread.php...nt-End-Alignment?p=42391&viewfull=1#post42391
The write-up also shows where you can put the gauge on the front of the pumpkin and what it should read if your caster is correct.
