I had a similar issue with a 95 Jeep Grand Cherokee. My tires were rather old. In researching the company did not recommend running past 7 to 8 years. Mine were at least 10 years old with plenty of tread still on them. This vehicle is not a daily driver but very dependable. I believe the inner cords were messed up. Started throwing money into the problem: steering stabilizer; front end alignments, etc. Wound up replacing tires and problem solved. Might want to check the number on your tire to see how old they are and see about replacing them.

Did you use a kit for the sas? All new stuff like bushings, springs, U bolts, etc? Without more information, I think everyone's gonna assume a bad install or tires imbalanced. Does it track straight otherwise?
