Default bumpster type symptoms 2011 jku

My jeep is getting mild bumpsteer, I had to swap out to my stock sway bar links until I get new bushings for my teraflex extended links. I have no idea where to start, shocks maybe?

Did you go with cam bolts like planned? If so check torque.

More info on your setup. Tire psi? Running a trackbar relo and/or drop pitman? Caster? Did it just start after recently a component? If so, what.

Never went with cam bolts after. Still on the fence. Had a knocking in the front. Swapped out links and it got worse. But is it just exaggerating the issue? I have a tf leveling kit with Monroe reflex monotubes.

Tire pressure is 28-30 in my 265 winters
