Just finished a 3" zone lift. It rides well but I get a wobble only after either big bumps or washboards at 55+ mph. If I let off the gas it goes away. I can drive on smooth roads at over 70mph with no wobble.
I did have it aligned after I did the install, going to take a good look at it this weekend. Where to start?

Do I need to get all four balanced?
Thanks

Hey quick question, I need to lift the front of my XJ to be around 4.5 inches. I have been debating to do this through two different means. the first is by buying a set of 3" lifted XJ coil springs off of craigslist, and then use the existing 1.5" lift coil spacers. The other is to save a few more pennies and get 4.5" lift XJ coil springs. the main question that I am debating now is, is there any significant benefit to having the 4.5" lifted coil springs vs the 3" lifted XJ coil springs with a 1.5" coil spacer.
