Ok, opinions please...
Home brew 2.5 inch-ish lift on the bronco using 2 in blocks in the back and 2.5 inch spacers in the front, and a sway bar delete. I'm fine with the "roll over feeling" on corners from no sway bar, but when I'm just driving down the road, it wants to take off one direction or the other on bumps, and will want to wobble as I'm keeping it in a straight line after bumps. It's pretty nerve racking above 50 mph.
I did not use a drop pitman arm, and as a result the tie rod angle is not good. Could this be the cause of my problems? Also there is no longer any play in the steering wheel at all, I mean you make a steering adjustment with your pinky finger and you dart in whatever direction you chose...
What do y'all think is the root of my problem?
