Front end shimmy
I have a 96 Jeep cherokee with a 3" lift. I bought the lift for it off a relative but ever since I installed it my jeep has a shimmy. It only does it when I got over 45 mph and hit a bump or dip in the road. The front is lifted with heavy duty coils and the rear is 3" blocks. Any ideas on what is causing this shimmy?

You sir, have the dreaded Death Wobble. Very common once these things are lifted. This should help.
