Boss has a Jeep Wrangler Unlimited, maybe 4 years old.  It's been lifted (not sure how, but whatever the typical lift kit method is.  Big wheels and swampers.

He put the OE rolling stock back on it to get it through inspection because the upsized stuff projected too far past the fenders, which is illegal in this state.

In doing so he realized that the body is sitting 1/2" off center - the tires are flush on one side but stick out an inch on the other.

Any thoughts?  I realize I'm not giving much to go on. but I don't know much.  Thansk.

It needs an adjustable trackbar to center the suspension.

If it was a decent quality lift kit, it should have come with adjustable track/panhard bars. Just need to crank them in or out to shift the axles until they're centered.

track bar's were lengthened(adjustable ones added probably) during the lift to center the axles..  Just dial them back in.. shoudl be able to do it effectively.
