Hello
First post here.. we just took delivery of a 2018 JL from Vroom (sore subject dealing with them).
Great deal on the Jeep (yuge upgrade from my last one, CJ7) and it came with a brand new Clayton lift with Fox 2.0 shocks and upgraded lower control arms, tie rods, etc. new wheels and 35” tires
We took it for a ride and in the first 5 miles we had horrible death wobble. Drove it some more and seemed to be a once off thing. Now it’s back.
We took it to a reputable off-road shop to have diagnosed. They said other than balance off by 3.00 oz on the fronts, camber slightly out they cannot find the root cause of the DW.
This was bought for a daily driver for my wife.
What could cause be? Would the style of lift (Clayton) be more geared for off-road than on road cause it?
Vroom is working with me on correcting this and willing to make it right whether that be to send it back or possible new lift install.
Thanks for any help or guidance!!
