I bought my 06 used and the prev owner couldn't stand the goodyears because of the separting issue and it now has a new set of Nittos on it. Another issue that I have notice and that there is a stall in the throttle response, once in a great while. I've had the Jeep for about 3 weeks now, and it's done it about 3 times. Would anyone have any idea of what that could be? I was thinking that I might need to check the fuel filter to see if there is junk in it, but not too sure.

rear end wheel hop over bumps @ speed. truck stays stable, but it's a bit disconcerting the first few times it happens.

I know what your talking about with the throttle response bro. Mine does it too and according to a few guys on here they said that if you get a custom tune it will go away. Also the sluggishness that you experience between 35 to 50 mph as well will go away. There is a product called the Sprinter on here that is suppose to elimate that Throttle response as well. Performance werks sells it.
