Abs problems after lift
So i installed my rough country 4" x series lift with 35" tires yesterday. Now when i hit the brakes the abs pump activates and continues to cycle until i am stopped. Also my traction control is causing the jeep to lurch forward while under power. I disabled the abs pump for the time being to counter that problem. But i am curious as to why i have this problem. And will the problem be corrected after i get realigned and reprogrammed?

Did you assemble everything and then torque all suspension components once the Jeep is back under its own weight?..if not, make sure you do that.
Also try disconnecting the battery for about 30 mins..
I have an 07, 2 door manual with a older rc 4"lift and haven't had any abs problems.
Edit:..missed your last line..there is a write up in the jk modified tech sticky, to help get your alignment close enough to rule out your alignment as being one of the issues

And also make sure your steering wheel is straight! On/off ramps on the highways are horrible I it's not right. But definitely go get an alignment. That should clear up any quirks you have.
