I ran a 4" lift in a 74 blazer with 33's and it drove well. Did you drive your and then adjust shims? Or shim it straight out the gate?

There's no shims on a solid front axle like our Blazers, and the Jeep is the same. The 3/16" toe in is adjusted by rotating the steering link that connects your tie-rod ends. I drive my Blazer at the speed of traffic and there's no problem cruising at 75 MPH.
