A) Confirm kingpin preload matches stock specifications.

B) Check panhard rod bushes

C) Check caster. You will have lost caster when you installed the lift and this increases the likelihood of wobble.

Have you tried just getting the tires balanced as a starting point?

Er well yes, obviously. So scratch option b. :oops:

With all the "how tops are Coilers" talk lately I've clearly become obsessed.
