Just put new tires on the cj. 2 used ones from my buddies which were in pretty good condition and 2 new ones for the back. That's the only thing I've change and when I get up to speed or hit a small bump she wants to pull really awkwardly. If Rees any advice you guys can get me down he right road on. Maybe a front end alignment or something. Thanks again in advance
 
More questions, were they the same size? Radial or bias ply?
 
Could be an issue with loose wheel bearings and/or rod ends. I would advise putting the new tires up front also.
 
I'd rotate the new ones to the front and do another test drive. If the problem goes away, you more than likely have an issue with the used tires (or a wheel). Problem continues; may suggest a mechanical issue with the steering, axle or suspension.
 
were all good now, i have a worn u joint in the steering column. should be a quick fix or it means theres gonna be a lot more fixes lol
 
Well that's better than what could have been wrong. The plastic spheres and spring clip or are you talking lower shaft w/pinned u-joint & bell coupler at the box?
