Nope. All tight. This ain't a situation where I just bought my first Jeep from some guy, and thought I got a really good deal and the only problem is that it drives like shit

I've been building this rig up for most of 5 years. I know every nut and bolt and rust pot

I even just swapped out pitman arms last night to get my draglink/track bar angles within 0.5 degrees of each other (was about 2 degrees off with the drop pitman).
Steering box bolts hold on my bumper so if they ever came loose, I'd know pretty quick.
I actually just remembered the timeline.
* 31", stock steering, long arms, front and rear lockers installed - no pull.
* Add - 33" - no pull.
* Add - WJ Knuckle swap and 1 tonne steering - No pull.
* Re-gear to 4.56 which required pulling both axles - Pull starts (I think).
I thought when I took it for it's first test drive after re-gearing, that I must have somehow changed my upper CA's length, but I'm positive I did not. I purposefully left the torque nuts installed on the uppers when I removed them for paint (while waiting for parts for the re-gear).
That said, I'm also positive I was at 85.5 degrees caster (measured at the diff cover bolts), and that's where I sit now.
So, I think it comes down to one of the following:
1. Tire inflation. I didn't change the PSI when I swapped gears, but I did go wheeling the first day after getting them installed. I probably aired down on the trail, and back up on the way home. I'm pretty sure I aired back up to 30psi which is where I ran them before.
2. Somehow I ****ed something up with the axle while it was out of the Jeep. Either long arms or axle mounts. Can't imagine how.
3. Bigger gears + lunchbox lockers = lockers want to lock a little earlier due to tighter tolerances with the new gears being setup properly, or perhaps just the larger gears causing lockers to engage more often.
Anyone else running 35's with 4.56, and lockers front/rear, on their DD?
