Brothas,
Here is the deal. I already did a search and got a basic idea but want more input on why I an getting wandering.
I have a 2001XJ with a modified rubicon express 4.5 inch lift. I have lower adjustable control arms, upper fixed, 4.5 coil springs with .75 inch spacers (so I am 5.25" in the front). I have the RE 4.5 leaf springs in the back with the 1.25 shackles so I am 5.75 in the back, I did this so when I put a tire carrier on the back I will be about even). Anyway, I have 31x12.5 mud terrains on 15x10 inch rims. I have had them balanced, had an alignement, set toe in, and have an adjustable track bar.
When I drive it tends to dart here and there. It is very inconsistent. If I am on a bumpy road or a road that has dips it will pull in one direction or the other. If I am on a smooth road or highway, the tracking is good ( I still do get swaying here or there but more mild) but as soon as there are country roads or even city roads that have bumps, etc. It is all over the place. I don't understand it because I had a 6 inch lift on a 89 jeep cherokee and never had these problems.
thanks guys
