I'm looking for a way to tighten up the steering on the XJ all the steering components are in great shape. It seemed like after I lifted it, the steering got a bit sloppy I notice it only when driving the interstate.

Might be the caster angle causing it to wander a bit. Mine didn't seem to have a problem until after I put 31" tires on it, now it likes to wander at highway speeds. Hard to keep it in a perfectly straight line... quite annoying.
