So about 8 months ago I put 2" teraflex spacers on the front end of my jeep wrangler(tj-sport). I followed online instructions and I really feel like I did it correctly, got it re-alligned, never had any problems really. The only problem is that I noticed that sometimes while on a rough turn at 50+ mph I got the slightest type of speed wobble shakes, it usually corrected itself quickly and it didn't worry me. Well I was driving down the I-5 the other day and every time i hit a rough patch of road at about 70-80 mph I would get a couple to a few second of speed wobble. That happened about 4 times. I then I hit a rough patch and got very severe speed wobble, my whole front end would shake like crazy. It basically felt like i was shooting a very strong machine gun holding on for dear life, It didn't stop shaking until I actually stopped the car. I checked the front end, idler arm, anything having to do with the steering components, and they all seemed like they were on there pretty good. Well i got back up to about 65 and it happened again and I had to stop my car again. Luckily I was only about 20 miles from Bakersfield and now my jeep is at a dealership waiting to get checked out. Any idea's if this problem may be because of this lift I did? Or, any type of input on what might be the problem. Also When I bought the car I bought the 7 year 70,000 mi. warranty. Do you think the lift with make this warranty void? thank you ahead of time for any input. The whole experience kind of sucked and was a little scary being that I almost lost control of the car twice, at pretty high speeds.
