    You wont have to shim the rear. Up front it helps the wheels stay straight and return to center from steering

    Well I bow to all the masters who told me to put shims in the front axle. I finally Bought 6° shims and install them today and wow! I can drive it down the road. The wandering problem is basically gone. I haven’t gone over 50 miles an hour yet. So I will see what happens in the faster speeds. Well I’m going Cruzin. Thanks again

    He may know drag racing stuff but not early Jeeps. Worlds apart. You should have between 5-7 degrees positive caster, ideally about 3/32” toe in, and no need for any track bar or panhard bar.
