Left align two graph edges (ggplot)

Try this,

 gA <- ggplotGrob(A)
 gB <- ggplotGrob(B)
 maxWidth = grid::unit.pmax(gA$widths[2:5], gB$widths[2:5])
 gA$widths[2:5] <- as.list(maxWidth)
 gB$widths[2:5] <- as.list(maxWidth)
 grid.arrange(gA, gB, ncol=1)

Edit

Here’s a more general solution (works with any number of plots) using a modified version of rbind.gtable included in gridExtra

gA <- ggplotGrob(A)
gB <- ggplotGrob(B)
grid::grid.newpage()
grid::grid.draw(rbind(gA, gB))
