I'm experiencing some serious vibrations, to the point where it is physically uncomfortable to drive. To make this more difficult several factors were changed before the vibrations started to happen. I hoping to get some help to find the root cause of this problem. The vibrations are intermittent, you can feel them throughout the car (passenger can feel them), they tend to be worse when hitting a bump.
Here's what's changed:
New wheels/tires (Rock Warriors with 285/70/17 Nitto RGs)
New SPC UCAs
Here's where it get's interesting:
The 200 had several botched alignments after the SPC UCA install. One shop on the first try didn't tighten the LCA bolts tight enough and the drivers side LCA slid and sheared off the cam alignment tab. The second try they moved the axle way too far forward and admitted that they torqued the LCAs while the load was off the car. So the concern is did they damage the axles or destroyed the LCA bushings.
I rotated the rear wheels to the front and it made no difference.
I have ARB front and rear bumpers, ARB sliders, and an approximate 2" OME lift.
So the question is, is it the LCA busings, axles, wheels, something else?
Attaching a pic of the busings.
Thanks!
