Here is what I am starting off with on the 4 door. I assume it is about 2-2.5" kit as the rear brake line is just a drop bracket. I believe I've seen the logo before that is stamped into the plastic shock cover but I can't put my finger on the name.

Doesn't drive bad, steering seems tighter then on my 2 door. But I get some crazy wobbling between 30-45mph. Nothing on the highway.

Any ideas?

Last two pictures.

Should I trim the pinch seam/rail anymore? It looks like he DIY trimmed the rear fenders as well.

Looks like you have a Zone lift from the logo on the shocks. Try looking on their website to ID which lift version you have.

Definitely Zone shocks. You have more than 2.5" of lift though. My JKR (yes, 2 door) measured 36" at the front fender flare bottom edge before my lift sitting on stock 255-70-17's. After my RK 2.5 lift I measured 40" on stock tires (I know, 4" of lift on a 2.5 kit, lol). Throw in your bigger tires and I will venture a guess at a Zone 4" lift for sure.

Balance the tires first.
The Have somebody turn the Steering wheel 9-3 looking for any play in the front track bar, tie rod ends, steering box. Then raise each tire and inspect the ball joints/hub bearings. Check torque on all suspension bolts.
