steering warranty
 

Is the steering considered part of the suspension, that would void the warrenty or would the warranty still cover the steering even though I have a lift kit, tie rod ends are shot???

It's going to depend on the dealer. Mine will cover everything except the Yukon gears and axle shafts I had him install. Check around with different dealers to see what they will cover. Some won't touch it if you have oversize tires.

any suggestions on NJ dealers, near toms river???

By law, the only thing that is not covered are the aftermarket parts you have installed. Chrysler would have to prove that whatever you installed caused the factory pieces to break, however, that doen't mean that they won't deny( or try to) you warranty work in a hearbeat. A lot of times, it depends on the dealer, or if the Chrysler rep happens to be there that day.
