Assfault...made me lol. Honestly man it sounds like you just need to be cautious of puddles and slow down.

I went around a turn at an intersection the other day with wet roads and when I did I started sliding like I was on ice. 0 control... I slid sideways into the other lane about 30 feet and my traction caught which threw me into an insane fishtale. I started sliding again but this time I was sliding straight toward an SUV coming at me in the other lane. I was like 3 inches from ramming him and he swerved. I kept fishtailing about another 30 ft down the road before I finally got straight.. scary af

Instead of my track bar running along the bottom of my axle to the top it runs from the top of the axle near the passenger front tire up to where it normally bolts by the driver front tire
Got a pic? Sounds like it's attached where the steering dampener should be. Would be easy to fix.

Wow I didn't even notice that he said that. It could definitely be mounted wrong. Check that out ASAP.
