when driving my wagoneer on the highway and i hit a puddle of water big or small it tends to pull my vehicle to the right almost to the point of going off the road 4'' super lift springs in front running 32's and the back consists of i know RB 3'' blocks and helper spring which will all be redone thanks to the guided genius of this association
thanks all Garoo

i think it is probably because most roads are built with a grade to the ditch and when you hit the puddles they tend to be deeper on the right side because of grass and dirt build up on the shoulder(a curb would do the same thing)thereforemore resistance which slows that tire faster sending you toward the ditch.i dont think it is a prob with the jeep the only way to help it is to slow down before you hit the water. hope this helps ease your mind

sounds like the tires are hydro planeing (bad tread design use to run in to the problem in the 60-70s been awhile since ive seen it

Have you installed a 4" dropped pitman arm? If you have not, this is most likely the cause of your problem. I know with my 6" lift and a 4" drop pitman arm (so I'm only 2" out of spec.) I still have the the right pull problem.
