    Bad shape after a mud stuck

    CEWTEW is right, may be steering, does it pull one direction or the other? And be sure to check the front and rear axle fluids, if the oil looks milky you may have gotten water through an axle seal. Start the cheapest and work to the expensive, a quarter car wash has my bet to do the trick.p0p

    Yj Wobble (not DW) just wobble

    From my understanding of DW, limited understanding, a true DW will only stop by slowing to a near stop, this is a very fast wobble that comes and goes upon hitting a bump, and if in a corner, it makes the jeep want to "jump" with the sideways g forces. I just want to narrow this down to the...

    Yj Wobble (not DW) just wobble

    Its not an up and down wobble like DW, its more like a side to side wiggle that lasts for a very short time, but makes the steering uncontrolable during that short time. Hope thats clear enough.:?|

    Roll Control?

    I read an article about them being used while on the trail, but wanted to get a second opinion. How was the holding power on the car? Do you think it would hold the jeep on an incline while shifting?
