ya, just watched the vids and read planman's write up. i'm going to get under there this weekend and check everything out and definitely address that trackbar. wish it would warm up around here. love freezing my a#$ off workin on a car

 

Welcome to the Jeep World, I moved to Florida where it is warmer to work on the Heap. LOL

 

one thing to look for is ice on the inside of your rim. i had that issue after driving thru some heavy snow. just a thought seeing how your in Ont.

 

Yeah I had to end up replacing all 4 tie rod and drag link ends. They were shot. I was able to move them with my pinky finger once off. The new ones are tight, tight, tight.

I also picked up a Teraflex steering stabilizer just to get a new one. But that didn't do anything, not even a bandaid as others have claimed.

 

you can chase the issue for a long time and spend a lot of money or it could ba as easy as incorect tire pressure. search youll find your answer. i chassed mine thru all joints and bearings, allighnment and then finally said fawk it and went with the psc kit. hydro steer howver does not fix the root cause you must still find the problem and fix it hydro just acts like a hulked out seering satbilizer. hope you get it figured out they can get out of control fast.


my issue was some seriously out of round and out of ballance wild peaks they were brand new.

 

Mine was caused by a worn draglink. The OEM ones are crap. It was replaced under warranty with under 70,000km on it. I replaced it with a Poly Performance chromoly one later.

 

If you want to waste your money do what the others said and buy new hardware. If your smart and don't want to waste your money torque your bolts to the correct specs and you won't have death wobble.

 

Start with torquing to spec, but parts wear out and need replacing. It has nothing to do with being smart or not. Anything you replace should be a good quality aftermarket piece. Factory ball joints and drag links are crap. There's lots of information to support that.

 

Actually if the bolts are torqued down properly they will not wear out.

 

Some of the bolts aren't sized properly for the holes in the brackets. They are also all thread which increases the wear if they do loosen.
