yea trac bars are another common thing.
if they dont have a road force thing try having them rotate the tires and see if the shake changes, if it does then your tires are prolly fubar.
kevin.
well I did need new tires anyways. i have the stocker old *** haggard 95 rims on an 05. my nice new chromey rims are off the jeep now with no tires. but more money to spend!

well from that sounds like tire problems, normal for a wrangler, i used to hate it when that 05 with 12k would roll in and the tires were shot, and the tire warranty was only 2 32nds of tread wear that caused a ride issue, talk about pissed off people

Don't blam ya, those things suck. I guess I was just soured on chrysler products after working for a jeep chrysler store for a year, bad things.
lol i know...i use to sell them! most were pieces of junk! only reliable one's were....**** none now that I think of it?
but yeah, probably going to get some 31's, or some nice off-road/highway tires. i had some michelin tires on before, and they faired pretty well for the wrangler. expensive though from what I remember!

yep, yep, pieces of duke!! Used to get em off the truck in service missing parts, like oil pumps, distributers and so on, not needed or anything, but tire , yeah michi's are real spendy but good tires, just stay away from good years and you should be cool, the new cooper discoverer atr's are cool. a friend of mine has em on his wrangler and they are wearing great
yeah, i am staying away from goodyear....i have a set of goodyear wrangler ST's with no tread wear on them, and I can't even manage to sell them for 150 bucks for 5 of them!
i may just take those tires I have, and slap them on the rims on there now to see what happens
