    Gotta find a better alignment shop that is willing to mess with your rear leaf springs and axle housing to recenter it.
    A dream setup I wish I could do

    I see you are running Dakars. Aren't Dakars side specific? If the axle centering pin is not centered on the spring arc and the springs wee installed on the wrong sides, that could be causing your rear steer effect.

    As we stand right now JBerry and zscott are the only ones who have taken the time to support the FAQ and get the new version of this thread going. I'll gladly take any links to other posts and add them to the FAQ links. But yea at this point JBerry is the beef supreme of this thread until he has been dethroned in a dick measuring contest.

    I'm just trying to get one spot for newcomers to get some answers without disturbing the homo erotic shenanigans and BS that happens all over TW.
    I expect there to be arguments o plenty in here for entertainment as well. We don't need the old OP for that, we have @Evenflow now.

    Lets put it this way guys, for the dock measuring contest, Jason's ( @jberry813 ) hand made offroad trailer has more travel than probably anyone in this thread. And is probably tuned better. Also, can I fit 35s on a 1" lift if I don't ever intend to turn the wheels?

    I should clarify. They may not be side to side specific but rather front to rear. If I remember correctly they are marked with a plus that should go to the front. Help me out here @DCSBFTMFW

    Assuming this is about Dakars?

    Not side specific. They have a "0" a "+" or a "-" marked on them showing how they tested compared to spec.

    0 is at spec.
    + is above spec.
    - is below spec.

    Driver side should get the strongest leaf since that's the heavier side, if both are marked the same then it doesn't matter.
