REMOVE THE FRONT TQ ARM BRACKET!!!!
I had the same problem, and the front trackbar bracket was the cause. Do a search and you'll see similar results. Sorry for the caps lock on the title line, but that's simply the cause of the weird "flighty" behavior and I wanted you to see.
Also, keep an eye on the rear spring spacer, they tend to pop out of place.

I would think the increased angle of NOT having the front bracket would cause issues... but the passenger side pull on hard accell has toned down ALOT over the past 3 days so...
and it handles much like I would expect a lifted vehicle to handle. 70 on the freeway is not hairy at all (as long as I'm not getting blown all over the road by 50mph side winds) , around town driving is comfortable as well... I guess I'm content with it for now but thanks for the recommendation, I'll check it out.

These spacers are garbage.
First time off road, spent the weekend riding mild sand trails and some moderate obstacles at Hard Rock.
Passenger side slipped off as I suspected it would. Drivers is still bulging (last two pics) but currently holding.
These will be tossed for a pair of TF or Daystar spacers.

TF all the way... Don't waste your time on anything else!!!
They pop into the body, locking them in place.

to all:
yeah hindsights 20/20. I had the chance to not install it as RedNeckJeep threw up an identical post just after my purchase but prior to install. I guess I could have returned it but
screw it, TF FTW!

too funny.but in all seriousness.... i think its great when people go with something else... we're all here for testing anyway... hence project-jk. i went with Teraflex cuz the other high altitude riders here in this state were rocking pro-comp, full traction, and bds. so i chose Teraflex as to bring feedback to the table for us Florida riders. I'm very happy with my choice.
I would be really interested to know just how many of these kits made it out into the field and how many did/did not have problems.
At the end of the day this experience has pushed me towards another manufacturer and hopefully it brings some awareness to our fellow JKers.
I would certainly NOT recommend this lift. For obvious reasons.
Rock out.
