What is the deal here? How do you know if they are on the right way? Never really thought to check when I did my lift. But I do notice my Jeep dog walks going down the road. TIA, Robert.

Did you install an adjustable track bar when you did the lift? The "dog walking" might be because the front axle is no longer centered.

yeah, I do have a custom track bar to work with my over the axle steering setup. The front is good. it is the rear that looks off.
