Default Replaced spark plugs, accells rough

Just changed my spark plugs, now when I give throttle to keep at 50-60 mph front starts shaking, any ideas? And when I was changing I did em one by one to not mix up and I used anti seize on the threads and when I pulled off one of the spark wires the link part stuck to old spark plug so I took off and shoved it back in to wire, any ideas? Still kinda new to the whole tech part of it, 96 zj v8, and has bad track bar with a little death wobble about to get replaced if that matters, causes different vibration than this new one, thanks open to any ideas

Replace the plug wires. You have at least one bad one given your description.

^^X2 on the wire replacement.. Buck up on some nice 8mm. Also, spark plug brands seem to make a big difference on Jeeps. I like NGK myself, but everybody has a favorite.
