Okay good to hear thank you. They are pretty light tires for being 37s.
Starting to think I need to go back to the 35s just so I can drive on the highway again. Around town is great so far. No issues under 50mph
Interesting update.
Spoke to another shop regarding road force balancing. Without even saying it, they asked if my tires were BFGs. Which they are and they said they never have luck with them balancing out well. Anyone have that experience?
Thank you! I think a proper road force balance is next. I still have a bit of wobble on huge bumps at speed. While replacing track bar bolts and tightening I did notice how much the upper mount flexes. Iāve see. Metalcloacks brace, are the sector braces with bearings worth it?
MAJOR UPDATE
*Did not install mopar extended control arms*
Installed front geometry brackets that I had laying around and shortened the Clayton uppers. My caster may be too much. Phone app level put it around 7.5-8. May have to extend the uppers alittle and get a proper caster reading.
I...
I initially thought I needed longer lowers to help with caster. I also read in another post that new lowers helped someoneās else DW. $100 try. Ended up not installing them anyway.
Okay cool. Iāll check the torque then.
Iāll have drop brackets back on today. I believe my current caster is around 4 degrees.
Still need to put mopar lower control arms but one bolt is insanely tight, bent my wrench. Need to get a torch and work on that another day.
Yea very odd. Funny I took those brackets off when I installed my Clayton kit. Clayton didnāt seem to care too much about them when I talked to customer service
Another update. Highway drive was successful. The catch is this was at Claytonās recommended 20 1/4inch length on the upper control arms. After the successful drive I figured Iād adjust the arms to 19 3/4inch as the shop set it for proper caster and BAM, low speed wobble (havenāt gone fast for...
I wanna go the same route š«£ absolutely no need for a 2500 but a regular cab long bed with some options sounds pretty nice for me.
Hoping to go through the summer at least with the Jeep and go from there. Some issues have turned me away from the Jeep. Shouldāve never lifted it or gone 37s šš¬
Todya I found the front lower control arm rear bolt not torqued to spec. Lower drag link bolt also not torqued to spec. Took care of those and then replace the trackbar lower bolt with a standard size bolt to fill the hole more. Nothing has changed driving wise. Will try highway shortly and I...
At work but ran out to the jeep to check the tie rod bar. Iām kicking here and there seems to be a good amount of wiggle. Kinda hear it too. Does this look right? Sorry if itās not the best video.
One thing I found so far was my drag link axle side bolt was not torqued to spec.
Itās triggered by larger bumps. Manhole covers, large potholes etc.. thereās no issues at all until I hit a big enough bumper over 40mph that puts the jeep into a true wobble. Not a vibration unfortunately.
Thank you so much! Iāll get caster and toe dialed in. Tomorrow Iāll be checking the ball joints which passed the pry bar test and Iāll be checking the track bar mounts while switching out the hardware to standard sizing Incase thereās any movement there.
My new balance did seem to help quite a bit
Thank you! Sure thing! The mounts are called side shooters by Maximus-3. Originally I could only find them on Tyriās website but I see extreme terrain sells them, same price.
highly recommend them, very stout, no vibrations. Perfect spot to aim to the side and not be too buggy or āsameā looking...
Not far, maybe 45 minutes from Clayton. I went there to pick up parts. Didnāt get too far with customer service but I have hope they maybe will post here or I may try another call lol they are very friendly but customer service just sends me to an authorized dealer after talking to them a bit.
Thanks for the replies fellas.
I donāt have caster measurement yet. I should have that by the end of the week. Iām sure as it sits caster is around 2.5-3
Degree. The shop adjusted it to 6 but thatās when I had low and high speed death wobble. With it adjusted back to Claytonās recommend
I...
