If you drop one and not the other, you will get bump steer. The Draglink and Panhard need to be as close to parrallel as possible. For 2" lift, I wouldn't advise fitting a drop panhard bracket without a drop pitman arm, or a drop bracket for the front, but it can be done. It puts a fair amount of stress on the chassis especially if you don't brace it to the other side.

Death Wobbles will usually be contributed to shagged panhard ends failing to locate the diff properly.

Jason, do the rear panard rod bracket and look for an adjustable front panard rod (try wooders.....as he does / did stock a strong replacement for RHD TJ's).......that is really all you need to do for a 2" lift regarding centering the diffs.

However should you feel that the steering has been affected then you could try an XJ's pitman arm to replace the TJ's . I have done this to mine and this has seemed to work....all be it im sitting on 4.5 coils with spacers.....and have tinkered with mine a bit.

The XJ's pitman arm is about an inch drop....a dripped pitman arm for a tj i think is closer to 2".
