I cant turn left in my tj all the way. I kind of wadded up the frontend one and got it fixed. I hit a hole and broke the passenger side uper control arm and broke the lower contol arm bracket. I bought a set of rusty's upper's and installed them and got new lower brackets and had them installed. Now i cant turn it left all the way. I have installed new steering box and that is not the problem. I have had it alingment done on it also. Oh yeah one last thing my steering wheel is upside down now. What do I do.
 
find another alignment shop.
 
adjusting draglink should fix the steering wheel...which is part of an alignment, so the previous two posters are dead-on...

you may have done what I recently did, and bent the track bar when you did that much damage to the control arms...

I could turn about 80-degrees to the right, and about 5-degrees to the left...

Take 3 rights. That will get you there. :beer:
 
Hey bigwaylon your dead on thanks guys for everything I thought I was going to replace my front end but hey that sounds a lot better. I am going to buy a high clearance steer so I might as well do it all then.
 
Well Rusty's offroad just got 500 of my money I just ordered an over the nuckle steering. It replaced all of the mess I have. Once again thanks guys.
 
Why is the steering wheel upside down by 180*. That would concern me. How did it get that far out of alignment? Sounds like they alignment is way off if it is that far out. Or else something is seriously bent. How did you break an upper Control arm and the lower control arm mount? Pics might help too.
 
When I first put my lift on my TJ my steering wheel was the same way, I had to take it to the alignment shop and they adjusted the drag link and my tie rod and got it back to normal, it can be fixed no problem.
