replace all your bushings on the front end. mine did the same thing and hardcore vibed when i started to slow down when it started. changed them all out and it stopped. btw my lift isnt as high so it may be different. just a suggestion because it solved my problems

You had stated your fronts were 275/65s and the rears were 31s. There is a slight discrepancy in sizes so that may have caused the problems as the fronts were slightly smaller than the rears.

That's I was thinking just didn't wanna belive it cause they looked cool who wants to put smaller tires on a lifted jeep lol. Well I guess I have to tun these till I get the money for a new set. $550 needed for the ones I want.

Got a wild idea so I took my 34" LTBs of my XJ and ran them on the ZJ for about 2 weeks.
This is how it currently sits 255/70-16 Hankook Dynapro AT/m's

Yeah wheel bearings could give you a bad wobble even with the slightest bit of play in them

As soon as I get my taxes back I plan on doing new wheel bearings both side both front axle shafts tune up and brakes all the way around pads rotors and calibers. Ill update when that's done shouldn't be much longer.
