Yeah I was never a fan of that show either. Didn't it only last a few seasons?

So I'm almost complete with phase #1 of my 17 JKU Rubicon build and getting it set up for 37's. The 1st phase included replacing the budget AEV lift, replacing all the steering components to fix death wobble and installing a Powerstop Big brake conversion kit. To say the least, it's been quite...

Thanks jeeeep, Currently my tires are around a 33". I'll be going to 37s eventually if I can get this thing dialed in. I'll take a look at my stabilizer like you suggested. I just installed a Falcon Nexus stabilizer. But the jeep drove like this before and after the stabilizer, although after...

Thanks GP, I'll double check but I don't think I have a dropped pitman arm.

Thanks Eddie, The steering kit that I installed was a 'flip' kit with the drag link relocated to the top of the knuckle. The Yeti track bar bracket is raised and has 2 mounting holes for the track bar, one for 3.5" lift and one for a 4" lift. I used the hole for 3.5". I'll measure bolt to...

That makes sense. I thought that a drop bracket was just a way to correct geometry without having to buy adjustable CAs, but I'm still learning about all this stuff. The only other geometry-based item I can think of is the draglink and track bar angles. From what I understand, you want those as...

Yep that's pretty much how it drives! Any little rut or abnormally in the asphalt it feels like it wants jump around. Just doesn't feel planted to the road.

Sorry I just realized I posted this in the JL section! Thanks for the input Wayoflife! The amount of lift is almost the same as the AEV, according to measurements I took before the work, its actually 1/4" lower. I went with Metalcloak Baller ball joints. I ordered a Adams front drive shaft but...

Last week I finished up the install of a new Clayton 3.5" lift, 1 ton steering kit, ball joints, and upper/lower track bar brackets on my 2017 JKU Rubicon. All control arms and both front and rear track bar are adjustable. Even after alignment and caster set to 4.2 degrees, the jeep drives...

Thanks Disciple, that makes perfect sense!

Thanks DirtHead, I didn't think about adjusting the steer stops.

Hi everyone, I'm new to Jeeps but not new to offroading and building rigs and hot rods. I'm currently building up my (new to me) '17 JKU Rubicon and installing a new Clayton 3.5 lift, ball joints, C-gussets, axle u-joints, driveshaft etc. While I'm at it I want to install a 1 ton steering kit...

Hello everyone, thanks for letting me join! I recently left the SxS scene and bought a 17 JKU Rubicon Hard Rock. It currently has a 3“ lift, 33s and a nice little case of death wobble! I'm in the process of swapping out the lift for a Clayton 3.5, 1 ton steering kit, new drive shafts, ball...
