I want to reprogram the computer in my Jeep to improve the performance. Is this a project worth doing and would you use any aftermarket performance chip or would you reprogram your computer. I like horsepower, as much as I can get in my vehicles. it is a 2006 Grand Cherokee Limited with a 5.7 Hemi with the 5 speed AWD trans and 373 gears.

It could be. Easy place to start. When was the last time you had an alignment and when did you put a lift on

Check your track bar at both ends, the axle end track bar mount is the #1 cause of death wobble. Make sure it's TIGHT, and the hole isn't wollered out.
