What Should I Do?

Okay, so after I installed my 33's my steering is extremely sensitive. And if you move the wheel 2 degrees it jerks all over the road. I talked to a local jeeper thats running 36's and his steering wasnt even close to being as bad as mine seems to be. So my question is, what should i do to fix this? Im going to buy a new steering stabalizer, but is there anything else i should look into just in case the stabalizer doesnt help?

Check to see if all your linkages are tight. It could very well be your power steering box is going bad too.

Did you get an alignment including steering alignment? Also it could be some of this angle crap which I cant really explain but will throw alot of words out there so that someone else can sort through and grab the right ones, drag link angle being centered with the other bar, possibly something about castor angles.

But my jeep is EXACTLY the same, I doubt it U joints as your body would sway more. Ill stay tuned because I need to fix this crap on my Jeep ASAP, its scary going down hills.

Dont buy the steering stabilizer yet, or do and tell me if it fixes it.

where you located btw?
