Hello everyone,

I noticed today on my JTR that at a full turn, I felt a pop in my steering wheel. I have a JKS 3.5 lift with rustys lca, after market wheels, and 37s. I have already tightened the track bar and control arms but I still get this popping sound. I can even see the tire shift if I do it slow. Here is a video

any suggestions? The Jeep has 6k miles, lift has 3k :(

had the same problem after steering box replaced. go back and tighten up everything on the front end. tie rod ends, etc.

Give us some more info. Does it do that in motion? Any evidence of contact? Any noise or vibe in 4x4?
I cant hear it while driving, but i also noticed when driving slow into my garage and I suddenly brake, i feel the same shift. No noises or vibrations in 4wd. When examining it while the steering is being turned, I cant see anything shift, but I dont feel it when i hold onto the drag link and tie rod.

i agree with this. I’d pay close attention to tie tie rod and drag link and ball joints. Track bar shouldnt cause a lateral pop like that on the ground.

I’m not able to watch the video. Any pictures? I agree with the others about tightening. Maybe an adjustment collar is loose?
