Check bjs by lifting one tire off the ground. Grasp tire at 12 and 6 oclock and try to move tire back and fourth. If it moves or makes a sound. its your bjs.

 

Ok I'll do that when I get home! I didn't get my alignment specs... My wife took it to get it aligned.

 

 

Yeah she said, "he showed me a paper..." Me: "ok where is it?" He didnt give it to me!

 

Ok... Checked the ball joints and there is no play at all!!! Anymore suggestions? Thinking I might need LCA. Anything else I should check before ordering them?

 

Call the shop that did the alignment and ask for a print out. They should be able to give you the specs. Once you post the specs we can tell you if the arms will correct your issue.

 

Its not the front... most issues in the front typically lead to the death wobble. I will bet your rear track bar mount in the axle side is broken. Common problem with the jk if you wheel. Push hard on the gas tank area and see if you get a side to side motion. if it does then its a track bar mount.

if you have a rear locker ir, that could cause squarely behavior as well. Assuming its locked

 

I've always been taught this is for checking hubs, not BJs.

BJs you get tire of the ground just a little and stick a board, tire iron, crowbar, etc and apply upward pressure under the tire while looking at the BJ to see of there is any movement up and down.

Sent from some string and a few tin cans.

 

Ok, been doing more research. My sway bars have been disconnected since October. Could that be wearing my springs out or the extra movement be causing bump steer? I've got a 2.5" BB. What would be more likely to fix it? An adjustable track bar or LCA?

 

I would think so. I rode without my front sway bar for a week and hated it
