Not long ago, I replaced the front tie rod, drag link, and track bar, and the rear track bar with Steersmarts Yeti gear. Also, prior to that, the dealer replaced the crappy aluminum steering box with the upgraded steel one. I also replaced the steering stabilizer with a Falcon. No more issues. My jeep is also a sport s.
Yea something to upgrade from the factory garage that JLs & JTs come with. Although I think Matt with Ozark Overland Adventure said that he has has issues with the Steersmarts tie rod coming loose at the adjuster sleeve and where it connects to the knuckles on his gladiator. Not exactly sure what’s going on there or if the aluminum knuckles are failing 🤷♀️
Ran into some DW at certain speeds after a good 5k on new 35x11.5's on my Gladiator. Overland - Rubicon Springs and shocks with 2 inch spacer for level. Running the slightly longer Jeep Mopar lift LCA (They are a smidge longer) Did the shimmy test and everything underneath was tight. I went with MetalCloaks drop brackets to fix Control Arm angle and fix Caster and after that and an alignment to confirm Caster and adjust toe my DW is gone.
Good to hear! We had to go through and adjust castor on the Gladiator & the Wrangler last weekend. There was no shimmy for either but they were a bit flighty at the steering wheel.
first time viewer and i instantly subscribed !!! LOVE your helper !!! mine is grown but yours is a lil man for sure !!! noticed he is taken too lol by his ring
People still have issues with 100% stock Jeeps. It is so bad on JLs & JTs that Jeep had to go back to using steel gearboxes on Gladiators in either 2021 or 2022.
Warranty "sometimes" fix this... ONLY if Jeep approves it for the dealership to cover it. JEEP often does NOT cover this. They didn't cover it for my Gladiator and I will never buy Jeep again!
Jeeps are made for daily driving. Otherwise you have to replace all that after the first difficult trail. Jeep don’t understand, they have much stronger competition.
@@gooseberry769 manufactures need competition to do better. But consumers need to stop buying what is being sold to us also so it forces manufactures to actually listen
Glad to see fusion upgraded their anti flop into the joint itself instead of the delrin bushing piece.

yeah I have the same 18v Milwaukee grease gun and Lock-n-Lube tip but I changed my hose to the Flexzilla hose.
We really like flexible hoses. But they don’t like ARB air compressors.

Does that Death Wobble only happen when you install after market tires or does it still happen with factory installed tires?

that looks like an aluminum steering box theres a tsb on those
We are aware but that TSB doesn’t replace the junk power steering pump either unlike a PSC steering system would
You can fix my DW too! 😁
You need the parts first 😁
