I swapped wheels- drove both and as goofy as the JK looks, it'll stay because it's just my work car and that 3800 motor needs all the help it can get 
. Driver side axle seal is busted and leaking too. 178000 miles.
Anyways, I will be ordering new shocks, springs, track bar, bump stops and drag link. It drives better with the Nokian Outpost AT's and I wasn't able to recreate the DW on the street or interstate- but there is minor play at both ends of the drag link and toe bar. Ball joints are solid- You can see the bump stop is smashed so I assume the previous owner hit a pretty healthy pothole or two. I'm still researching on what route to take as far as leveling the front end or doing a max of 2.5 lift. I had Bilstein 6112's and 5160's on my last Ram and really liked it- tempted with the AEV kit. But I would like to try something else such as the Falcons, but nothing super soft as I like a very planted and controlled ride. Lot's of highway and small amounts of muddy/rough terrain.
