Just wanted to make sure that if I started using this term in conversation that I am correctly describing it. For instance, you might use a Rough Country Front Control Arm. So the Jeep can be driven safely, and with less chance of breaking a part, or losing a driveshaft. This is to keep the geometry of the suspension and possibly the driveshaft in the correct alignment. I probably should have just done some internet searching for other trusted sources to confirm or confuse the subject further. Jeep Xj Alignment Messurments If you have made the decision to install a suspension lift or change out other steering components on your Jeep TJ Wrangler, it is certainly important to get a proper front end alignment after installing these products. Sometimes you may want to change your caster angle from the factory settings. Maybe this is the FSM's own definition of the term and the rest of the collective world has a slightly different interpretation of it. To get the angle to change you would have to add or remove shims to the control arms (or spin the arms on aftermarket CA's). So using that description I would think adjusting the track-bar would which moves laterally the front axle wouldn't qualify as an thrust angle adjustment. Then there is is a graphic showing an axle turned radially to the vehicle centerline not shifted laterally. This angle is not adjustable, damagedĬomponent(s) must be replaced to correct the thrust Thrust angle can cause off-center steering and excessive Relative to the centerline of the vehicle. "THRUST ANGLE is the angle of the rear axle The reason I was looking for clarity is due to the description of thrust angle in the FSM. Thrust angle makes sure that all 4 wheels are "squared up" - its not an angle that's just related to the front axle - it lines up everything, front and rear.īy the sound of it, they probably only had to rotate the trackbar adjustment one rotation.
