Adjustability
The 2016 Jeep Wrangler has limited alignment adjustability from the factory. Front toe is the only angle that is directly adjustable. Camber and caster are not adjustable without aftermarket parts. To adjust camber and caster, you will need to install offset ball joints or adjustable control arms. The rear axle is also non-adjustable for camber and toe.
Recommended adjustment hardware
To enable front camber and caster adjustments, a common solution for the 2016 Jeep Wrangler is the installation of offset ball joints. Several manufacturers, such as SPC and Moog, offer these components. These ball joints replace the factory units and have a built-in offset that allows a technician to make camber and caster corrections. For more significant adjustments, particularly on lifted vehicles, adjustable control arms are the recommended solution.
Symptoms of bad alignment
Common symptoms of a misaligned 2016 Jeep Wrangler include the vehicle pulling to one side, an off-center steering wheel, and uneven tire wear. A "feathered" or "saw-tooth" wear pattern on the front tires is a classic sign of a toe-in or toe-out condition. If the inside or outside edges of your tires are wearing more quickly than the center, it could indicate a camber issue, although this is less common on a solid-axle vehicle like the Wrangler unless the axle is bent or other components are worn.
When to align
It is recommended to have your Jeep Wrangler's alignment checked annually. Additionally, an alignment should be performed anytime you install new tires, after any suspension or steering component replacement (such as ball joints, tie rod ends, or control arms), or after a significant impact with a curb or pothole. For off-road enthusiasts, it is a good practice to check the alignment after a trail run that involves any hard hits to the suspension.
Typical alignment cost
A front-end alignment for a 2016 Jeep Wrangler typically costs between $80 and $120. This usually includes a check of all alignment angles and an adjustment of the front toe. If additional adjustments are needed and you have the necessary aftermarket parts installed, the cost may be higher.
