So I am sure this topic has been discussed a lot but I am still new to the jeep world. I am experiencing this alot and I room it in and they said it was the steering stabilizer but I have heard it can be other things. It should be covered under warranty but should I just upgrade it?

There are a ton of things that could cause this and from my research putting a bigger/new SS on it is only masking the problem. It should be covered under warranty so take it to the dealer see what they say. If you do want to upgrade the SS I recommended the HD TeraFlex Stabilizer. Have it on my JK and am happy with it. Its an easy 10 min install.

Yea I hear ya. I took it to the dealer and the stabilizer is what they said it is. I was just wondering if they are just masking the problem too. Is there something else I should look for?
