I’ve been having a bit of trouble with my Jeep lately and I’m hoping I can get an idea of how to proceed. Sorry if my post is a little confusing I still consider myself new to all this Jeep stuff.
This month has been 2 years with my Jeep and so far I’ve only dealt with normal vehicle repairs (water pump, starter, clutch, etc). About a month ago, the rear upper control arm mount snapped while I was a driving. I got it towed home and ended up getting it welded back in place but it’s opened my eyes to a few possible problems. Lately I’ve grown sick of the rough ride quality that people have told me was “just a Jeep thing”. That being said, I took it in for a suspension inspection and it turns out the control arm bushings are worn out and it’s causing the rear axle to shift while driving.
My Jeep is modified and looks like it was done professionally. It currently has a 6 inch lift from what I assume is Rubicon Express and it’s also running 35s. So I would like some advice on how I could go about upgrading my current setup for daily driving and occasional trails in the future.
