2.5 BB developed a shake
I was running 285/75 16 pro comp all terrains, which started to develop tread separation, but only on the rear tires. Kind of odd, but it occurred twice. They replace the rear 2 tires, and about 6k miles later it happened again. The second set had not been off road at all and the tire pressure was checked regularly. First there were cracks near the bead, and they pointed out the separation around the outer diameter near the tread. The merchant where I purchased them switched them out for BFG all terrains and the shaking went away. I will be curious to see what happens at my next rotation.
Is it possible to properly align the vehicle with the budget boost to avoid uneven tire wear? I did not think it was, so was considering replacing my lift.
The death wobble scared the crap outa him
I took it home and kept flipping wheels in different locations, including the spare, until I found the one that was causing it. I took the one back and they took that tire off, flipped it to a new rim, problem solved. They were brand new wheels. Hopefully yours is just a tire outa balance though.

I had never touched the tyres nor even disasseble them.
After woing 500miles to the Jeep camp and 500 more back and doing around 200 miles after the trip I got my first wobble today at around 45-55miles.
I have checked the JK under and found the steering damper loosing lots of oil.
I did not align after installing the 2,5BB.
I am a little worried

Same thing happened to mine right after I rotated the tires. I have the Teraflex 2.5 BB. I guess I need to replace the track bars and get everything aligned. Not sure what else I needed to replace.
I have considered taking the BB lift off, and replacing it with a more complete kit.
