Ok could use some help here. I cant seem to find the root cause of my DW. Ive done everything i can think of and I'm hoping someone has a suggestion or something I'm missing here.
2018 JLUR with 25,000 miles.
Jeep does go Offroad, greens, blues and the occasional black.
35x12.5x18 KO2
Suspension Parts
2" Mopar Lift
Yeti Adjustable Track Bar
Yeti Drag link with Griffin XD Attenuator
Yeti XD Tie rod for Rubicon
Yeti Sway Bar links
Yeti HD-N Steering stabilizer
Yeti stabilizer relocation bracket
Yeti Steering stabilizer damper bracket
Teraflex Alpine Adjustable front lower control arms
Teraflex rear trackbar bracket kit
New steering gearbox installed from the latest TSB. (DW happened before the install and after)
Greased all suspension parts (i do that normally anyways)
Retorqued all suspension parts
bought the upgraded polyurethane bushing kit from Yeti for the trackbar (haven't installed yet)
loosened then retorqued all wheels to 115 foot lbs (normally i do 100 but went halfway between my normal and factory torque spec)
Caster is a little over 6
Tire pressure is set to 34 (even tire contact on a 10" wide rim)
There does seem to be some "play" in the drag link. I can tilt the drag link end on the pitman arm side, up and down a decent amount where i can see the Attenuator boot rotate along with the movement.
I'm planning on getting another alignment done just to see if anything is "off" anywhere. Probably try increasing caster closer to or at 7.
Hoping someone here has some suggestions or hell, even a nice fix!
