Maybe a year and a half or so ago, (after the problem started) I thought about the bushings as well and replaced all that looked/felt remotely questionable, which was considerably more than I thought there would be. Those components hadn't been on for much more than like 1.5-2 years. It has the...

I don't understand why I cannot convey that before this vehicle, or "abortion" as you so eloquently put, was parked for a long duration there were no problems in the steering; which means that regardless of what angles the track bar, tie rod bar, alignment geometry specs, or any equipment being...

IRO HD Tie rod bar, Rusty's Adjustable Front Track Bar, Rustys Dual Steering Stabilizer Shocks, 1.25" Drop Pitman Arm, SFR Heavy Duty Track Bar Bracket, Timken Wheel Bearing / Hubs, RT Off-Road Ball Joints

I bought a brand new not refurbished steering box. Once that didn't fix it I welded in a SFR frame brace and spacer. The frame rails didn't look bent, cracked and the stock spacer looked good without any stress fractures, until I put pressure on it to verify it was in good shape LoL. Seriously...

Im fairly certain that LAs will get rid of the problem, unless it actually is a bent axle, which I have no clue how that could've happened unless someone took my jeep without me knowing. (IMPOSSIBLE with GPS tracking in the alarm system). It was supposed to be a question of a $200 fix Vs. $1300+...

Sorry i haven't replied in a little while. I do appreciate the help/advice that is being given!!! We are dealing with a family death/insurance/hospital B.S. that is unreal. I have looked in a few spots, but cannot find my service records folder for my Jeep. It's even more frustrating as I am the...

I have checked those distances a couple of times, esp while I was adjusting the arms "a few turns at a time". Not sure where my alignment papers flew off too, but we have tried a few different setups with the front toed in and out by as much as 3/4", with no positive results. The really weird...

96' I have switched tires, I've even went so far as to buy new tires! No the rims aren't bent/warped in any way as they balanced out with a small amount of weight on the backsides only.

I'll have to dig out the papers after a while.

I don't really do a lot of wheeling with this one, she is mainly a daily/winter time vehicle. I am thinking because I don't drive it that often, I hurt it on an outing and didn't realize it until much later. After it had sat for a few months I went for a cruise and was like "something is off...

Hopefully these show some of what I am seeing in person. As for lift, ~4" (actually lower than it used to be) 31X10.5 BFG A/T. We have tried a few different setups at the alignment shops.

A few things off the top of my head that have been replaced, adjusted, or intensely examined are; steering box, worm gear, spacer/reinforcement/braces, tie rod, ends, links, track bar, bracket/ends, steering stabilizer(S), pitman arm, no bent/cracked frame/welds, unit bearings, alignment...

I have a 96' with Iron Rock Off-Road HD Adjustable Upper/Lower Control Arms, which now likes to pull to the right, kind of as it pleases. I think I have it narrowed to the control arm brackets being somehow bent at the frame, not the more commonplace axle mounts, which I have...

Thanks guys for all of the information and personal experience with your lifts. You have defiantly given me A LOT to think about and take into consideration when buying the new lift components. Especially the part concerning the angles involved with the lower control arms. I never even thought...

I appreciate the responses and advice. I have always heard great things about the OME ride quality. I guess I am going to have to save just a bit more than I was initially expecting and go that route.
