Have you done an alignment after the lift?

This type of death wobble is usually coincidental. As in you had something worn almost to the point of death wobbling, change your alignment slightly, and that was enough to set it off.

An new alignment will not fix the part thats causing your DW. It might go away again temporarily, but it will be back.

How many miles on the TJ?

What tires?

What track bar?


What parts were changed for the budget boost?

If you are having a hard time finding and want it looked at send me a PM. We can set something up.

I have found in the past that the rubber bushings in the front LCA's don't work on lifted Jeeps. Get some arms with poly bushings and it should fix your problem.

Rustys
Procomp

to name a few... :wink:

Thanks for the input but i have decided to scrap the bb and spend some money and put in a re4.5"sf system.  by the way the track bar was replaced with another factory bar from a rubi.  and there was nothing else removed just added the spacers.  ohwell hope the new lift will not cause any problems.
