First and easiest suggestion is to lower that obnoxious lift height. It is in no way needed to run a 37" tire and is very difficult to achieve a descent caster number running a stock axle with that much lift. Running that lift height will give you significant body roll regardless of raising your tracbars and draglink. Drop that lift down a couple inches and you will see a drastic improvement in handling both on and offroad
Second suggestion is if you would like to keep that lift height would be to get an aftermarket axle housing with increased caster built in. That will still not address your body roll and stability of the vehichle just simply help it drive straighter

I really appreciate that input you suggested... From all the stuff I have thought and read,, you sound about correct,,, that lift is too high.... I think i will change the springs to 4in... 2nd what do you mean by Obnoxious lift and axle housing ? If is what am thinking, i do have poison spyder cover diff,,,,

Wow that was serious good information you provide,,, it seems all makes sense.. I did put aftermarket drive shafts,, i got adams drive shafts front n rear.. Bump stops "2" rear and front... Thanks once again.. probably am going have to sell this coil springs and go with teraflex 4 inch springs
By rollover feeling, you mean body roll when cornering? Or some other kind of wandering flighty steering or funky handling?
Do you have a rear trackbar raise/lower bracket? How parallel to the ground is that trackbar?
I am confused a bit by your high steer comments. Up front, were both the draglink and trackbar raised from the axle? Lowered from the frame? Just one of them? Are they currently roughly parallel to each other?
Link measurements don't really mean anything for us. Are the swaybars themselves roughly parallel to the ground?
What are the alignment specs?

I wish i can answer all your answer to help me out but i dont have all measures. I took to a jeep guy and he align and did the rear n front trac bar to the best he could,, but as when am driving, it doesnt not pulls to the side at all... is just feels like the jeep wants go everywhere on the road,,, it moves a lot,,,, no dead wobble either

Post pictures of the front and rear ends. Good pictures, where we can see the entire length of the axle and suspension from straight on.
You're lifted 5.5 inches without long arms...that doesn't sound too road friendly. Lower your lift height for sure.
