Steering oscillation

[Mr Weekend]

Hello all, looking for a little help. I have a 2020 Jeep Gladiator with mopar lift and 35’s. I have developed some steering oscillation, the dealership has been not much help except for performing the steering TSB. Could any tell me the factory torque specs for stock track bar and drag link I seem to have some play there. And if any has other possible fixes.
Thanks

Under what conditions does the oscillation happen? Hitting bumps? At a certain speed?

Here's a thread where someone posted the Mopar lift kit torque specs:

Found this over on the JL site, wish we had this here. Most of it's likely the same as the JT, but may want to verify that:

get brackets to correct your caster. it will make a HUGE improvement for you and you can do it in your driveway in an hour or so by your self. Easy and heck

and yes you can still use these with the MPP LCAs that came in your MPP lift kit. I have the same LCAs and the brackets and it made a world of difference.

You can also see if your toe is off. I had my JT "aligned" at a shop and then...after getting the stones to try it my self...found out they had my toe set the same front and rear. Once I reset it to to in the steering wonder disappeared.

How many miles on your tires and how many miles since they were last balanced?

Thanks for the reply, most of the oscillation happens between 30 -45 mph after hitting a bump either with both tires or just one. I think will start by getting a set of those geometry correction brackets and go from there. Thanks.
