Banks exhaust

JCR front bumper

Warn winch

Lockers modified to run in 4 hi

I wouldn’t hesitate to drive this rig across the country, but priorities in life have changed, and I need a vehicle with 4 doors. The Currie steering setup takes every ounce of bump steer out of this Jeep. I can steer with one finger at 70mph. No trades. Slightly flexible in price

I looked at this previously, and really my only issue is that of your post history lol. I'm a little skeptical.
Your only posts are; posting about wobble, then "supposedly fixed", and then posting it for sale.

Honestly, I’m 98% certain it’s a ball joint or track bar bushing combined with a slightly out of balance tire. Discount tire sucks for 35s around here. It has done it exactly twice since my last post on the subject. Both times between 45 and 55 mph on my 3 mile commute, at the same section of road (a sweeping right hand turn in a 55 zone). I drove it 4 hours yesterday across the state at 65-75mph, on terrible roads with broken pavement/interstate that is rutted badly. It did not even hint at having an issue during that drive. Drove straight as an arrow, composed, and dare I say comfortably. I’d knock $1,000 off the asking price for not having to replace the joint/bushing prior to sale, as we have a baby due in 4 weeks.
