Hi all, can you guys spot anything out of place in the steering system or does everything look good in the video?
Nothing unusual jumps out me other than its RHD threw me at first!
Other than not being able to see the TRE on the left steering knuckle; all the other TREs appear to be in good condition....
You might consider lifting the front of the Jeep off the ground; do a check on ball joints up and down movement and spin the tires listening for noises in the hub bearings.

All we know is that there isn't anything bad enough to see on video.
When I do a steering test, I grab a hold of each connection with my hand so I can feel for unwanted movement. Whoever is working the steering wheel needs to do short quick turns side to side. Long turns each way are just a waste of time.
I also have the engine running so that the power steering can stress the connections. That is how you can find things like a slightly loose track bar bolt, adjuster sleeve, ball joints, etc.
