When I drive straight the wheel likes to move on it's own even with hands tight on the wheel. I had an alignment 4 months ago I have a brand new otk steering kit. New track bar and pitman arm when I lifted it. Just replaced the steering box which made it tighter but not completely. And the steering pump was changed 7 months ago so all my steering is new except for the steering knuckles and steering column. What can it be?

Took these pics the other day should the track bar end look like this? Could this be it? It's only 4 months old. And yes I am planning to eventually get the other track bar and mount. However if that fixes the problem I will get sooner.

What size and type tires are you running also could be a balance issue with the rubber.
Or tire pressure Im running 20 lbs because of all the snow and you can feel it in the wheel.

How are the ball joints and tie rod ends?

Tie rods ends are all new and tie rod and drag link are new upgrades to one ton steering

Tires were balanced by a very good local shop used inner wheel weights so they don't show on the outside of rim for me

And the ball joints?

Hewittxj

No they haven't been replaced while I owned the jeep don't know if they ever were.

Take a picture of your steering /track bar from the front.

I have the same kinky steering
Had it aligned recently, made it better
but still not perfect
Did the new tie rod ends make a difference?
Im thinking about upgrading to 1 ton steering

OTK steering + OEM trackbar mount = Bumpsteer out da YingYang.

I forgot to mention my front sway bar is not connected could that be it?

1 ton is worth it if you do over the knuckle (otk)
