from my experience that is just what happens when running a really wide tire.....12.50 or 13.50 will follow the grooves in the road. I've talked to NR4x4 about it, and 4WP as well as Discount Tire.

just the nature of a jeep I suppose...shouldn't be at an uncontrollable level though otherwise something else is probably wrong.

I had "wandering" with my RC lift, my wife hated driving it after the lift. Replaced the front lower control arms with adjustable arms, set front pinion angle and it drives just like it did before the lift was installed, the brackets mentioned earlier esentialy do the same thing but dont give you any adjustability.

I think you will be pleased after they get on there. I even had wandering/flighty steering with my leveling kit....added the TF lower control arms and they made a world of difference. I was right at the edge of spec in caster before, so I know I just got around ideal when they were installed. I never put it on the rack again as I don't feel the need for it.

I also switched to the TF tie rod, drag link and SS, another great upgrade!

Default Lower control arms

If your lifting above 1" I say go ahead and get some Lower control arms. Make sure they are adjustable so you can dial them in. Also I would recommend new sway bar links.

Amazing! Handles like stock tires! I wish I would have listened sooner. As about to switch to narrower rims and tires, but now I can keep the look and 35's.
