Look at the air pressure. I dropped mine down from 32 to 25 and it changed the way it handled completely. It tracks straight now.

Default caster

check your caster. my caster was a minus -1 and on uneven road the jeep was flat out dangerous.

i took to an alignment shop and they adjusted to +5 and now it drives like NEW.

(thanks WOL)

Good call I know that feeling of having 35PSI in the tires and you hit a bump at speeds next thing you know it your two lanes over... haha I've got mine at 28 set at 28 PSI and makes a world of a difference..
