LOL, Even this one is suspect. Sounds like payback for criticizing Biden/Harris on the border.....

OH ok. It definitely a real thing since I can stick my head out and see the driver's side tire doing the shimmy when I feel it in the steering wheel

What was the steering pump thing then? Also for pre 21s? (its an Oct 2020 build btw)

??? the power steering pump? I checked the recall website and my Jeep has had everything taken care of so far...

And that's why I keep my OE parts lol

Hmm, it has had a shimmy since the install. I assumed it was tires at first as well since I was rolling on older tires. But the new ones mounted/balanced at dealership didn't solve it. I have since replaced the tires with brand new KO2s. (315/75R17 on AEV Pintlers) and while the shimmy has...

At what lift height do I need to consider a control arm drop bracket? Running a Skyjacker 2.5"/1" leveling lift (all springs and new shocks) I'm getting the occasional mild wobble at 50-55 mph. It's only hit scary level once and it's been on the truck a year now. It gets more prominent any...

Dang! at that price maybe I can do something a little more. Is a upgraded drag link advisable? Or a high steer? I'm running AEV wheels with 5.2" of backspace so I've got the room for it

Hey All, I've got a 2.5" Skyjacker lift and 35s on my 21 Gladi sport. I don't think I need a complete steering system replacement but if you were on a budget, what would you do for a mild lift and tire combo?

Figure it out? I'd be suspicious of control arms. If they've been removed/replaced/loosened they may not have be torqued back down where they need to be. If you think about it; when braking, the axle is pulling forward on the upper control arms and at the same time pushing backwards on the...

I was worried about that. I ditched the rectangle light bar I had because I couldn't handle the whistling anymore. I may just skip it then. Maybe I'll just mount some titan spots on the bumper instead and put the Era 4s on the cowl for ditch lights

It's been 4 years almost! Can we get a long term review? I'm seriously thinking about them but with the New Titans out, I'm conflicted. I'm in PA so I have to keep them covered constantly so I'm not sure spending the extra dough for amber lights is worth it

You guys are right, sorry if it seems like I'm saying otherwise. My issue is paying the extra $500 to $1000 to have someone install a new carrier and set the gears up. Without re-gearing, I'm having a hard time justifying it... I'd love to run 37s but that would be purely for looks. And 37s...

Personally, I prefer being able to unlock the front on command due to steering. Nothing worse than backing down a steep and slick incline even for a couple feet trying to get the front LSD to unlock. I don't plan on doing anything in the Gladiator that's hard core. No rock crawling or mud...

The plan is to put a selectable in the front (and I'm thinking about not even doing it). I already did the re-gear (4.56) and lockers thing in my XJ. I've no desire to go bigger than 35s and a rear locker on the gladiator. I'd just like something for the occasional snow covered road and the...
