It’s hard to pin point but sounds like it’s near the frame side Track Bar mount or the Steering Box.
So, I recently installed a Sector Shaft Brace for my 2020 Gladiator due to steering wheel play. It has an aluminum box and this helped tremendously. I can now feel a very, very small shimmy in...

Howdy yall.
my mojave has been experiencing drift to left side, clunking when shaking steering wheel left and right since 41k miles. Now Im at 45k miles and finally figured out what’s wrong. I first thought it was a faulty draglink joint on pitman arm side, but it turned out to be bad steering...
I have a Sport S that is essentially bone stock with a AEV Steering Damper.
I plan on eventually going to 33 inch AT tires, new shocks with no lift, and a 1.5 inch leveling kit.
What part should I consider upgrading next for smoother steering/handling? Tie Rod? Drag Link? Trackbar?
Any...

Took my Jeep on a mild trail last week, drove home fine. Now my steering will not return to center on its own and seems to stay where I point it. None of the steering components were hit, dynatrac ball joints were put in about 6k miles ago. It’s on a Metalcloak 3.5 inch lift, 37s and has always...

I bought a new Gladiator over the weekend. Test drove Friday, was pretty windy, so i assumed the wind was affecting steering. Took it home Saturday, still wandered, no wind. Drove it Sunday, power steering failed completely. Hemanned it home and called dealer. Rollback picked it up Monday...
New member here. Does anyone have issues with their axles moving when turning the steering wheel either direction? Dead spot in steering at any speed. Impossible to keep in your lane. Started making a loud popping noise when turning left or right. Video is from today not jacked up. Can't hear it...
I’ve noticed some weird clunking noises in my steering arm and I don’t know if it’s loose, or this is normal? After a while I tracked it down and I would like some feedback on what to do, or if I should tighten it. Video down below sound up! It moves up and down as in the photo attached and...
Hi All!! I picked up my new JT on Saturday morning and overall I love it! The Sting-Gray color with the black trim of the Willys package is badass. Already kicked in the 4WD for some heavy snow. Heated seats and steering wheel are wonderful. And all the tech on board is everything I wanted. But...

Paid $350 for this stabilizer and LOVED IT for the 1 month it was on my JT! However, I found it will interfere with the MetalCloak Front Diff Cover so I've gone back to stock steering stabilizer for now.
This thing is worth every...
Some boxes are no good. My JT’s steering box was replaced by the dealer. I went from a ~1.5 in dead spot to hardly any play. It’s a joy to drive now. I was able to get this done without all much drama. Here’s what I recommend:
1. Take a video on a straight road from the driver’s seat that shows...
So the first day of driving our new Overland Gladiator we hear a clicking sound when turning our steering wheel. It turns out to be a clockspring that needs replaced. Before making it into the dealer to have the clicking looked at, our Front Collision Warning (FCW) Electronic Stability Control...
PLEASE read questions carefully before responding.
This is NOT for the DW/death wobble issue. Let's please keep that a distinct issue because it is a distinct issue with difference causes from the "loose steering" problem some experience.
