Ive been chasing DW for 3 years on my wj. 1 1/2" bucket lift. The length of lower control arms and camper is only thing that throws me for a loop. When i ordered them new, they said its fine w/ stock controls arms, so i ordered stock length. Ive done everything you did in vid with a little more including polymer track bar, new tie rods on everything. 3 years of chasing it. If its as simple as my camber angle and going adjustable, I would kiss you. Or at least that pretty lady. High five to dude. Thanks for good video.

For me it was a mixture of out of balance tires/shocks, but also my front upper control arms on the axle side were completely obliterated, when I took them off the bushing just fell right out of the axle, BINGO!

[@TheOnlyFalcon17]

Bought the full control arm kit crawl series with the track bar and rear A arm for my 02 WJ can't wait to get them fully installed!

[@eugeneengland7282]

[@davidnicoll9140]

Great video, this was so helpful and made the job so much easier, combined the alignment video it was just what I needed. Death wobble gone, on my 2004 Jeep WJ 3" lift. Installed the Core 4X4 Tier 3 front upper and lower control arms and trackbar. AWESOME 😀, really great quality products and great support.

[@core4x4fab]

So glad these videos have been so helpful for you, that is why we make them! :) We love hearing that people can fix their rig because they are getting the knowledge necessary to build their rig themselves :)

[@jesseburns6849]

I will be ordering a set of front arms soon for my 2004. I have a set of rear lowers on but need to replace the fronts. Appreciate the great video

[@core4x4fab]

Thank you for your business! Glad you enjoyed the video

[@ladycola310]

Awesome thanks

[@Blackspike85]

Do you have a link for the tool and size you are using to tighten the jam nuts at 15:20 in the video ? I installed my links about 4 years ago and the jam nuts are constantly coming loose.

[@pimp64029]

I have a 4-in lift on my 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee what control arm length in the front lower and upper would you suggest?

[@toku58]

Could you tell me the size crows foot I need for the Jam Nut? (What size is the Jam Nut?) Is it SAE? Metric?? I've searched on your website and I can't find this information.

[@musicismeds]

I have the cruise set on my wj and a 4 inch bilstien setup. As well as new tie rods. I still have dw around 60. What do I need to adjust my control arms to? Alignment is at 3.75 caster. Tires are 265/70/17 front. 275/7017 in the rear. Any idea what could be causing my dw? Thanks

[@steve76e6]

Was the length of the track bar changed?

[@n.m.mn.m.m2078]

Is caster a huge issue? I recently acquired a 04 wj and its got real bad death wobble at 40-50. Went to change ball joints and there 1.0 degree offset. Dont really wanna spend a bunch extra on a vehicle im not sure on the rest of its quality. Its only lifted maybe 2-3. Should i just adjust control arms for now

[@toploadtele]

I installed all of these parts on my 2-WD WJ a while back... nice stuff! The issue I'm having now is DW at higher speeds of 70 or above which I call "10 seconds of terror". Could too much positive caster cause this condition?

[@core4x4fab]

The WJ's are the most prone to it. Too much caster can cause it, but most of the time it's a combination of a few little things, not just one. Like a little too much caster with a little play in the track bar. I would check everything.

[@toploadtele]

@@core4x4fab I think my Core 4x4 upper control arms are a little too long.... longer than your recommendation which puts my wheel a little forward of center in the wheel opening. I'll shorten them to your spec and see what happens. Thanks!

[@eugeneenslow8563]

Is this kit available for WK/XK???

[@keithsrt1]

What was the length on the trackbar

[@Weidjeep]

Do the spacers come with a set of lower control arms for a WJ or do I have to purchase separately?

[@core4x4fab]

The spacers come with the control arms

[@JTL93Mopar]

Anything for the newer power wagons would love to get some parts

[@core4x4fab]

[@wbball15]

Great assessment. Wobble is usually a combination of multiple failures within the steering & suspension systems. Enjoy the content. Keep it up.
