i'm not looking for overkill but don't want to replace it prematurely again. suspension wise my jeep has a teraflex 2.5 coil lift with shocks that netted me about 4" and jks front and rear trac bars. still running 255/75/17 mud terrains.

as time goes and money comes i'm gonna step up to 35" tires or maybe 37's with flat fenders.

so....if u were me.....what would u buy?
If you netted 4 inches of lift you will need at least front lower control arms to adjust your caster. I went with Terraflex and am very happy with those, but that was a major cause of my death wobble. An adjustable track bar helped, but did not eliminate it. Check you toe setting, and larger tires will effect this setting too. Should be about 1/8th inch out, but check WOL's posts on alignments.
