I have a 96 XJ 4dr with 5spd manual trans.
Drives perfect in 2wd. Has new tires, new sway bar bushings, new springs front and rear, new shocks all around as well, and front end alignment was done when new tires put on.
When I put it in 4 wheel drive (part time high), it appears to drive ok at low speeds (under 25 - 30 mph). If I start a little aggressively from a red light, it pulls to the right. It also pulls to the right (and occasionally side to side) at low highway speeds (40-55 mph) while in 4wd.
I haven't done ball joints yet, but when I had them chacked, the mechanic said they were fine.
This issue is starting to bother me since I never recall the Jeep driving this way when I had my old 2 dr XJ with 5 spd manual.
Can anyone help me diagnose this issue? The Jeep runs great and is in very good shape, with only 125K miles. I daily drive it and have no intentions to get rid of it given how hard it is to find one that hasn't been off-road, crashed, or starting to rust apart.
Appreciate any help you guys can provide. eace:
