Hi Jamesy, have you fitted the std 3" lift or the heavy duty 'winch' bumper front springs? I now have the later fitted to my jimny and on the road ifeels more stable than it did with the Pro-comp 2" lift? What shocks do you have fitted.

ive got the 3"kap normal springs and es3000 shocks to fit , ive got armour correction arms and kap adjustable panhard rods , ive got some 215/80.15 tyres on so the tyres are a bit higher than the 75s it had on , now ive driven it a while it doesnt seem that bad , ive been using my other car for the last 3 months or so while i had that bolt that stripped re welded , the garage really took its time :x
i still think im going to sell it thou i could do with the cash at the moment

Worth checking all your radius arm bolts are tight too. Mine's on 31" 10.5 - 15 tyres and they actually make the whole vehicle more stable.
