almost immediate?
That's pretty damn thick oil for the 4.0 man. Spec is 10w-30. I run 5w-30 year round to reduce wear and tear on the engine when it's cold. Perfect oil pressure instantly at start, 252,000 miles on the clock and runs like a top.
Why are you running an oil that thick? You're hurting the engine more than helping it.

On a cold morning, can take a few minutes to build up to 45psi tho...

For those that may be interested. First RCRocs is May 5th of this year. They are also going to have a R/C comp, which my boy and I just registered for. We plan on spending the whole weekend up there and wheeling on Sunday

That actually sounds like your sway bar links are too long. Check to see if your sway bar ends are hitting the unibody.
