Hello All, My trackbar was indeed bent to hell. I replaced it with a new JKS OGS128 Heavy Duty Track Bar and all is well now. Thank you.

Could be the hardware for the pre-cats again. I had them tightened down once before.

Hello All, I have intermittently been getting a P0057 code that will appear out of nowhere, usually in the middle of long drives. Then it will disappear a few drives later. This same pattern of intermittence occurs with this weird whining noise that happens only when my foot is not on the gas...

Thanks all, I ended up getting the OGS128 from JKS, which is their HD TB and has a 5/8 frame side bolt. This is probably good, considering the current track bar was bent from my recklessness, and I don't think I'll be losing that trait anytime soon ;)

So I've got to replace my bent trackbar. I ordered a JKS OGS125 Adjustable Track Bar. Problem is I forgot I had to drill out the frame side upper track bar hole to 5/8 for the bent track bar and the new one has a 9/16 bolt. Is there some kind of bracket I can get to adapt this? I've seen...

Learned my lesson to say the least hahaha

Comes with experience to spot that, my untrained eye never even thought the TB could have bent. I’m still learning, but after putting the ZJ Conversion upgrade and my new TB on, I think I’ll have a better understanding the steering components, how they work together, and what could be affected...

Is that the ZJ Steering Conversion? I'm about to do that upgrade. How do you like it and how noticeable a difference over stock components is there?

replacing all shock components soon (y)

It was completely 180 degrees upside down hahaha. I’m an optimist and everything seemed to drive fine (and look fine to my untrained eye) and I’m in college with a heavy workload, it was good enough to go so I’ve driven it and wheeled it after an alignment for about a month…

New track bar time. Thanks for the help!

Thanks Blaine, if you look at my other post about my steering stabilizer contacting my track bar, there’s a video of me being a dumbass on top of a slick parking garage and slamming into a curb on my passenger front wheel. I wasn’t sure if the pitman arm question and the steering stabilizer...

Please post a picture of yours if you are able later

Yes that makes sense. I wonder why it’s angled that way. You think maybe I bent it? Is there some way I could correct the angle so the bushing is vertical?

Is this pitman arm angle correct? My thought is that it should be parallel with the body of the Jeep but I have no idea really. I’m trying to track down the cause of my steering stabilizer rubbing against my track bar. Not sure if this is related at all. Please let me know of any issues you...

Lesson learned 😆

I see what you're saying with the curve. Would the axle being off-center create the rubbing problem between the stabilizer and track bar?

My UCA's are stock. I'll definitely get them checked out. Stock control arms aren't all that expensive so that's good news if it's that.

Hello All, I have been having some steering problems. It starts with a story. The story goes me and a friend were on top of a parking garage with a slick painted surface at the top. It was raining, and I thought it would be fun to do donuts. I hit my front right wheel into a curb at about 10...

Sorry if this is dumb but what does it mean to great for overdrive vs. no OD?
