So I got a lift installed on my TJ this week, and well I caused problems that I had to be a lot worse.
Background 3 inch Zone lift on a stock 2003 Jeep TJ 150k 4.0 5 Speed
I had some wobble before the lift in the 55mph range not bad not super shaky but it was there and worse under braking when engine and pedal were combined, now its at a lower speed and a lot lot worse more like a death wobble than a shake. I knew my track bar at the top driver side was bad the bushing is shot, and it was definitely on my list of things to fix soon but now seems to be a priority. The wobble is greatly felt on the driver side compared to the passenger.
The Jeep was aligned post lift and the only thing that was out was the camber ? I think suppose to be 4-5 degrees and mine was 3.5, said it would be fine but should look into upgrading to adjustable lower control arms to sort this out.
What I am looking for advice with is trackbar recommendations and where to begin on the process of getting this thing sorted. I want to stick with a name brand company but is one of the higher brands better or are they all the same when your talking quality companies? The place I got my lift suggest going with the Metalcloak for the track bar.
The next thing to upgrade would be the front lower control arms, and I am also kind of lost there I would like to eventually do them all over time. I was going to go back with Metalcloak here as well but also scene some people talk goo about the Core 4x4.
