I picked up my Hdj81 last month and took it to a LC repair shop. One of the issues was it was diving and leaning into the front right corner. If you were driving straight down the street you had to steer left to keep it straight. It was real bouncy and would sort of wallow especially driving in ruts on the freeway. Also, it REALLY swayed hard to the right when making a left turn.
The shop said it needed new shocks. So, I’m not too mechanically inclined but, I wanted to learn so, I ordered new shocks and replaced them. The same symptoms remained.
Called the shop and they said that I probably needed an alignment.
Thinking that maybe it was the springs, I switched the front springs (right side to left side and vice versa). The problem still existed.
Thinking that maybe I received a bad shock, I switched the shocks around. Still the same issue.
Any ideas on what I should try next?
I’m thinking maybe it’s the bushings?
Or maybe a steering stabilizer?
Or maybe it does need the alignment that they mentioned ?
I bought the car with a 3” lift. It has unknown springs and now has Icon 2.0 aluminum shocks.
Any and all ideas are welcomed, please?
