I would really love some input on my steering set up. What can i do to further upgrade?

I am still getting some death wobble. But it is so inconsistent... And i am running out of ideas. The last thing on my list to try is replacing the ball joints.

Adding the steering box brace with the sector shaft support made a HUGE difference in the handling of the jeep. There is practically no play in the steering now.

Do you think the steering stabilizer would be better off mounted on the drag link (like it is stock) or where its at on the tie rod?

I have the drop brackets installed ready for a swaybar. Bur first i need to weld the brackets onto the axle. Then ill install my sway and my disconnects.

Any ideas, input, advice, anything would be great. My goal is to create a very solid steering setup and be able to feel comfortable going on a 100 mile cruise.

Thanks!

replace ball joints and check control arm bushings also when you have the steering box loose to put new support in check for cracks mine was all cracked up

Yeah those will prolly be my next steps... And i did replace the steering box bracket! My old one was toast, when i held it in my hand and put just a little sideways pressure on it to bend it back straight it just snapped.

How tall is your lift and do you have stock control arms or adjustable ones ?Has a alignment been done on it ?Have you tried rotating the tires ?

Be sure that you replace the upper CA mount on the pass side differential as it is very weak, I replaced all of mine.


It appears that you have adj. control arms but if not they are needed with that lift to set the front differential properly. I'm guessing that you have an SYE also with the proper driveshaft in the rear with a 4" lift?
