SO I recently had a friend help me put a 4.5" lift on my 94 Cherokee COuntry... I orginally couldnt re-connect the sway bar because the links were to short so I kept it off... OI was driving down the road an the jeep hit a bump and started a really bad wobble to where I had to almost stop and start going again for it to correct itself.. It was doing this alot so I ordered longer swaybar links and re attached the sway bar... The wobble doesnt happen as frequently but it still does happen... ANd with the lift i also added an new adjustable trac-bar and steering stablizer.... Does anyone know or have any ideas what could still be causing this?? Can it be due to bad alignment or tires??? Well thanks for listening hopefully someone can help..
Need some advice...

Search this forum for 'death wobble' and you will find a lot of troubleshooting tips.
I'd start with inspecting the trackbar and suspension for slop while a friend cycles the steering back and forth against full-lock.

I think it may be the alignment because I notice it starting to happen when I turn the wheel to make right turns/ curves in the road.. Left ones are fine.. Plus when I put the steering wheel the way it should be it pulls to the left hard... Thanks for your advice if an alignment doesn't work I'll def Check the suspension an trac bar for slop..

You'll find some things there you usually won't hear about to look for.
BTW, your sway bar will have little or no affect on the DW problem.
Pay attention to the part about aligning a lifted Jeep if yours is lifted. That can make a big difference.
