2 week old Gladiator just lifted 4 days ago and feeling a little loose/ wobbly in the back end over dips in the road. Has 2.5"F/1.5"R skyjacker lift w/ M95 shocks and 35" tires on stock wheels. Added adjustable sway bar in the front. Fox 2.0TS Steering Stabilizer and Geometry Correction Brackets en route for the front. Wondering if this will resolve the issue or if I may need to try some additional mods.

Already planning to upgrade shocks in the next 6 months to some fox reservoirs. Wondering if I may need to add some wheel spacers to give a little more meat outside of the body. Thanks for your help!

Wheel spacers will not help the suspension feel. What trim is yours? The Rubicon rear springs are quite soft. I feel like mine over compresses during dips at moderate speeds.

It’s the Overland trim package but I got the skyjacker rear coils with the kit rather than the spacers.

Update: got the Rancho Geometry Correction Brackets installed today and it completely fixed the problem. Not sure I've ever seen a mod make such an immediate impact in ride quality!!!

If you're lifted more than 2" these brackets are a MUST!!!

added Teraflex rear trackbar relocation bracket which helps the wobbly feel in the back too.
