Rear shimmy
Hi there, I just installed a lift Teraflex 2.5 inch lift on my JKUR. At about 80 mph I get a shimmy from my rear end. It only does it from 75-80 mph and then goes away. I installed 35 inch mud tires and like I said the 2.5 inch teraflex kit ( springs, Bilsteins, new front track bar, and the bracket for the rear track bar). Could the tires simply be unbalanced or should I look deeper? Everything is tight, no loose bolts or anything. It only happens at about 80 mph.
Any advice would be appreciated. I know it is not in the front because the steering wheel has no shimmy, only the body and the stick. The stick is shaking pretty violently during this time, but then settles down when I go below 75 and over 81.
Thank you,
Dave
