  1. New JL Steering Issue TSB 08-074-20 (for "Improved Steering Feel")

    I'll have to make an appointment and get a new "new" box installed. My cast iron box has at least 1/2 inch in each direction. Glad yours has no dead spot. That pull to the right is probably alignment or tire pressure.
  2. New JL Steering Issue TSB 08-074-20 (for "Improved Steering Feel")

    Called my Dealer in North Atlanta on Monday. Part came in on Tuesday and installed today (Wednesday). Jeep is stock except for Synergy trackbar brace and Fox Steering Stabilizer. 1. Wandering is gone. 2. Works fine with Synergy Trackbar Brace. (Dealer removed and reinstalled). Charged me an...
  3. Steering issues cured by installing new Steering gear box! (per TSB 08-074-20)

    I just dropped my JL off at the dealership. Mentioned I had the track bar brace installed and left the original Nut in a bag on my passenger seat. My advisor just said we will reinstall with the synergy but instead of factory. I’ll find out Thursday and report back to you if they charged me...
  4. Loose steering feels like it has play and drifts

    Thanks for working on the NHSTA team. Share the correspondence along with contact names so we keep them honest on intent to address steering issues with JLs and Gladiators. Again.. Thank You!!
  5. Found problem with Synergy trackbar and sector shaft brace when turning

    This was as Far as I could push the trackbar over and into the support bracket without forcing the trackbar into place. If I forced any farther right then the bushings bind on both ends and introduces a lot of squeaking. Synergy is aware of the problem on unlifted JLs and working on a fix. I...
  6. Found problem with Synergy trackbar and sector shaft brace when turning

    You might have mentioned this before but if not lifted, put the factory trackbar back on. I have issues with my Synergy trackbar. It’s not fitting right and making noise. I put the factory back on to validate and was indeed the Synergy trackbar bushings. Make sure it’s torqued to 110 ft lbs
  7. Motor Trend confirms steering issue fix made to 2020 Jeep JL (gear valve tuning & pump calibration changes)

    This is my 4th Wrangler. 1997 six cylinder/stick 2008 JKU rubi/auto 2015 JKU/ Sport S/auto 2020 JLU/Sport S/auto with Sun and Sound package This is by far the worst steering vehicle I’ve owned. I’ve also owned Landcruisers with solid axles and 4 runners. This the first time ever joining a forum...
  8. Loose steering feels like it has play and drifts

    Maybe I’m just getting used to bad steering and it’s not really better. I switched back to factory trackbar because the synergy trackbar didn’t line up right. It’s definitely looser with factory one. I’m not giving up yet but the lemon lawyers should be trolling this site.
  9. Loose steering feels like it has play and drifts

    My old LX450 had solid axles and drove great. So did my JKs. This Jeep Thing is BS and need only apply to lifts, tires and removable doors/top. Sloppy factory steering is just sloppy engineering.

  11. Loose steering feels like it has play and drifts

    YouTube tewltalk and watch his video on that. You’ll need a heat gun from Harbor Freight or HD
  12. Loose steering feels like it has play and drifts

    This helped a bunch. Need the synergy trackbar brace in addition to new stabilizer but this helped the wandering. My wife also thinks its so much safer to drive. Whoever originally posted this.. think it was CaliforniaJeeping but this was a lemon law saving post. Not sure If the software will...
  13. Motor Trend confirms steering issue fix made to 2020 Jeep JL (gear valve tuning & pump calibration changes)

    Unless my 2020 is actually a rebadged 2019... This is completely wrong and the 2020 suffers the same issues as 2018 and 2019. My steering is awful. Wandering and sloppy steering from the factory.
  14. Loose steering feels like it has play and drifts

    Your power steering reset technique cured my wandering steering on 2020 JL Unlimited Sport S with 1,800 miles. My adjustments so far. Step 0. Had the dealer change the box to AE version. No improvement. Step 1. Followed the YouTube video of TewlTalk and adjusted some of the play in my steering...
