Default Budget Boost / ESP issue...

Hey guys-

I have a quick question that I hope someone has experienced before! I installed my skyjacker 2" BB on Sunday along with the new Nitro's and 33x12.50's on 16x8 wheels and have gotten nothin but nod's and the issue i am having is when i turn my wheel to the right my esp kicks in and the light flashes on the dash. it doesnt happen during a hard right -only when "bearing right such as on an off-ramp) It does nothing to the left and when i check it out underneath there is nothing rubbing! I have installed a 4 inch on a YJ and have never had a problem like this before. Could there be a problem with my ESP? Everything is tight underneath, as I locked everything down on tuesday... Any ideas would be greatly appreciated! Enjoy the weekend!

Your steering wheel is not completely centered, it may look like it is but its not. Play around with it and move it a little at a time and you will be fine. They are quite picky on being very centered.

It can be PIA but I drove mine for a month like that before i got it centered good. Just loosen the nuts and give it a 1/4 turn at a time and tighten her back up till she settles in where she likes it.
