Default ESP Problem After Lift-HELP!

I installed a terraflex 2.5 kit this weekend, springs and new shocks and frt adj track bar. When I start off II shut off esp because it keeps coming on. Then after about two minutes the ESP/BAS light comes on dash. Bad shaken if BAS light does not come on. I am not talking about ESP slippery road indicator. Is there anything I can do, to disable system or any other solutions.? Very scary shaken.

did you re-center the steering wheel by adjusting the drag link?

Try this link for the re-centering of your steering wheel. Even after re-centered it might take a bit of driving before it goes off.

To all those saying to "search the forum" thanks for nothing...hope you never have a question that was already asked

same here, but not bad shaking, is it death wobble you are talking about? go back and check your track bar to make sure everything is tight and your axle is centered.

and for the ppl who say search why waste ours and your time with that message, go back to being a armchair quarterback and waste time on another thread

Make sure you use a torque wrench on your trackbar bolt, using a wrench wont hit the torque specs you need,

I'm about 40 minutes from Cortland, near 4wd hardware if you need help, Just send me a PM
