Hey Yall,
I finally saved up to buy “new” Dana 44s for my LJ and after throwing them on the Jeep, I’ve had some serious trouble with steering wheel shake and bump steer.
I have Rock Krawler adjustable control arms, JKS track bars, and CavFab 1 ton steering; all were perfectly fine on my Dana 30. Ball joints are brand new from Teraflex and all bushings show no sign of significant wear.
I took it to a shop to get it aligned and this was the “best they could possibly do” without putting new offset ball joints on it to fix the camber. They say the axle is possibly kinked but we threw a truss and sleeves on it with no sign of a bent tube. The guy that had them before me had no issues with the axles at all.
Has anyone experienced this before and what solutions would work for me to run safely down the highway?
