Front End Alignment
Any idea what a typical front end alignment should cost for a 2000
Wrangler 6 cyl and how often it should be done. Regular road
vehicle(little or no stup jumping).
Thanks

Re: Front End Alignment
The ONLY thing in a 2000 TJ's front-end that can be aligned is the
toe-in. Without using aftermarket parts, the caster and camber angles
are fixed and not adjustable.
The good news is you can easily and totally accurately set your own
toe-in. I haven't paid to have my toe-in set in years since learning
how to do my own. Set your own toe-in to 1/8" by using the easy
instructions at http://www.4x4xplor.com/alignment.html All you need
is a tape measure, a wrench, and a big set of pliers. A friend to hold
one end of the tape measure while you measure is helpful. No worries,
done with a little care this technique will produce a toe-in setting
just as accurately as the high-school dropout at the local alignment
shop can produce. That webpage also shows how to center your own
steering wheel.

What Jerry didn't mention is, if you are not mowing over curbs, then the
toe-in can go forever without any consideration at all. Your 2000 should not
need any alignment services if you haven't altered the suspension or slammed
any curbs.
