When I am going about 15 mph and in a right turn, I feel a vibration coming from the right side that is akin to what you feel vibration-wise when the ABS kicks in. It's not the brakes though. I recently had a 4 inch lift with new 305 tires installed. 4WD,who did the install said maybe it's the Jeep's stability thing kicking in, as the new lift may be causing the computer to kick in differently than before the lift was installed.

Any ideas?

Thanks

 

re-center your steering wheel.

 

Off hand I'd say the odds are in favor of something was done wrong during the installation of your lift kit.

 

After the lift was first done I had the problem. Took it back and they noticed that the right side arm was installed incorrectly. They fixed that and the problem went away for a month. Now it's back. Searching the internet, I have come across a few posts to various forums where people notice that ESP comes on in right turns at 25MPH or below. So it seems I am not alone. In all those posts, the JK's were lifted.

I guess my questions now are:

1. Is what I am experiencing actually the ESP (I haven't noticed a warning light)?
2. Annoying as it is, can I live with it or is it a potential hazard.

Thanks for all your input.

 

This is why my Jeep isn't getting lifted.

1. There's a lot more shops by far that will screw something up during a lift kit installation than there are shops that will install it correctly.

2. Now that they have computers attached to everything including the suspension, changing it's geometry just opens a whole new bucket of worms.


Just not worth it, I'll stick to my 31's.

 

hs106, as 4WD installed it for you, surely they will have to put it right or put it back to your original setup and refund your money? What 4" lift was it?

 

It was a Pro Comp Stage I. Nothing fancy.

 

hs106, dont discount the ESP. when you feel the vibration, look at your dash. if the ESP light (looks like a jeep with squiggly lines under it) comes on, its probably as simple as re-centering your steering wheel.

It's not coming on, which either means it is not the ESP, or it is a gremlin!

 

Or do the install yourself...A least you'd know it was installed right the 1st time.
