How adjust front sway bar links ?

How much do you tension them ?

Do you tension them at all ?

What ?

Thanks

No tension in the sway bar links.

If you have tensioned your sway bar links, then what handling/riding characteristics would that produce?

your rig would tend to lean towards the side that is shorter. For instance. If you make the drivers side shorter it will pull down on the drivers side frame while pushing up on the pasenger side.

You are correct--no adjustment on sway bar links.

Have a vibration that seems like wheel hop.
Changed wheels/tires front to rear, same vibration.
Replaced all 4 tie rod ends, same vibration.
Am stumped.

What do you have for tires. Even an unbalanced or wrongly balanced tire on the back can make it shake.

By "on the back", do you mean rear tires ?
Asking, because, while steering wheel has some wobble,
the big majority of the vibration seems to be coming from the rear.
Have attached pics of rear control arm bushings.

Driveline angle issue?

Have the tires checked for balance, rotating them might shift the "bad" tire around but still a slight vibe is hard to track down without first eliminating the tires completely. If once they are checked its time to lift the jeep and start prying on upper and lower control arms and ball joints and tie rod ends looking for play. The jeep has to be off the ground, wheels removed and suspension floating, supported by the frame only. Don't forget to check track bars. Once all steering components have been check, its drive line and u-joints...fun fun.
