Thanks to @CumminsPusher for some tips. Headed to get anti seize and spray foam for the doors now.

You must have hit pretty hard, are you setting toe in on alinement, I set mine at 1/16, 1/32 on each side, I haven't driven it on payvecet or flat dirt roads yet, I like it on trails.

Haven't done the alignment yet. Do you just measure front and back of the tires?

For a quickie I use two jack stands and a string, set them up front and rear on one side,set the jack stand about 2 inches off wheel move the front jack stand to the same measurement from back of the back rim to front of back rim, that will be pretty close to being in alinement with the back wheels and then set what ever alinement you want. measure the back of the front and compare to the front of the rim measurement to the back of the rim measurement. Be sure to tie your steering wheel .

I didn't do all that but it looks pretty straight and I bounced it around in the driveway to let it settle. "Good enough"
