Default Xj unstable on road after lifting

Put in some new bits into the missus car bog stock 01 petrol Xj with the idea of 4" lift and 33's ,

Parts installed

Brand new gear installed

rubicon express 4" long travel shocks all round 'Double black off road supplied'

Matching rubicon steering stabiliser

Rubicon adjustable johnny jointed
Front upper control arms ,

Rubicon lower adjustable rubber bushed lca's

Rubicon extended braided brake lines



Second hand gear fitted

2.5" pro Comp rear Spring pack , re bushed and fitted with a 2" add a leaf ,

2.5" pro Comp front coil springs with 1.2 inch Spring spacers

Adjustable sway bar disconnects that go upto 6" lift 'supposedly'

Adjustable track bar ,


Car had front end alighment done after
Gear was fitted ,

Car has horrible vibrations in rear , which I'm guessing is tail shaft angles ,

Do have a new transfer case with a slip yoke and an hd double cardnl shaft to go with it , that's getting put in shortly ,

Do I need to space transfer crossmember ? Or will the Double cardian shaft do the trick,




Front suspension doesn't seem right either , going to go over it again, in the morning , but it feels 'loose' and rattlely ,


Is there anything else Ive forgotten and should be put in the car to suit that amount
Of lift , ? I thought I had most bits covered , but now arnt so sure ,

And before people ask , yes upper control arm bushes in diff and new nolathane , and the front diff and brand new ball
Joints, bearings , cv's etc
