Looks like it, probably started building a nest until you drove it one day and he said wtf and bailed
BTW, I've taken the Jeep back and forth to Wilmington a couple times on 95 and it's driving pretty damn well. Pulls to the right a little bit, gonna take it to NTB one of these days and it should be perfect.
It was clogged pretty bad but with the 3.8 L, going from 25 HP to about 23 HP because of an air restriction isn't that noticeable.
Why do you take it to NTB? My Jeeps drive like a dream and I've only ever used a tape measure to align them.
EDIT: (The JK control arms aren't adjustable so except for the tie rod, that one doesn't really count.)
