I just got this TJ. It had lots of bent, worn out and leaking parts. So I figured I would start there. I have replaced the ball joints, power steering gearbox, power steering pump, tire rod ends, drag link, pinion seal, rear U joints and steering stabilizer shock. I have ordered a stock pitman arm and plan to change it asap. I also will be taking it next week to have a friend try and straighten the lower control arm brackets.
I am not sure about the sway bar links. I honestly don’t know how to check them or what to look for. I do know that this jeep has a 4 inch skyjacker lift part number TJ 401BPHLT, sitting on 35’s.
My main concern right now is the steering darting all over the place and bump steer. It will kill you over 25 mile an hour. It’s the worst I’ve ever experienced. I have not taken it to the alignment shop yet because I wanted to make sure I didn’t need to change out or fix anything else first. Any insight on other things to fix or check will be greatly appreciated. I’m stumped as to what to do next with this thing.
