When I compared the 2 TSBs, the only change was the pitman arm bolt. So yea, I think they might have skipped that. But not sure if that bolt would make a huge difference. What I am more concerned with is this: is the software they uploaded in Jan 2021 different than the software they used on your Jeep now? Either way, they are doing everything again for me, so I'm hoping for a good result.
Yeah I’m not sure what the bolt would do unless there is play in it?
my understanding is the software update is new. not the same from a year ago.
Just an update after putting a couple hundred miles on. Software update definitely makes a difference. Much more stable on tight highway lanes in the rain. Even holds its track better in the wind. Lot more enjoyable on the highway.
I was not planning on going after the 2nd TSB until you I heard you say it's more stable on the highway in wind and rain. This is my only complaint. At speeds 65+ it can still have a slight "wander" unless the weather is clear.
Well let’s be honest. We are driving a box. So it’s never great in the wind. But overall I felt the software update alone made an improvement.

You'd look at the part numbers on the TSB and match to the part numbers on your jeep... They all have white labels with the #'s on them.
With this new TSB version that came out (with a new pitman bolt and software update), I recommend you ask the dealer. The first question: how does it drive, at both medium and highway speeds? Does it wander or have a dead spot at all? Even an inch?
did you have a dead spot ? and if so did it eliminate the damn thing finally ? mine doesnt wander so much its just the dead spot and it varies whether its hot or cold out.
did you have a damn dead spot in your steering ? mine does, and i just set up an appt with my dealer HOPING this will eliminate that damn dead spot. that or im going to have to figure out how to get to the adjustment screw that has been mentioned elsewhere.....
