New to me ZJ LIFT ADVICE

Just picked up a 96 5.2 ZJ after a 5 year drought of not having one. Previously had a 93 5.2 ZJ with a budget boost and had the Death Wobble and didn't make enough money to throw at it every time something would go wrong from wheeling (which seemed often enough).

This time, I want to do it right. I ordered a 4.5" kit with just about everything (upper/lower arms, track front and rear, bump stops, t case lowering kit) EXCEPT a steering stabilizer (which I could use a recommendation) and the pitman arm.

I've seen so many conflicting opinions on pitman arm and could really use a straight answer: should I replace, and if so, with what?

Guys and gals, I don't want this to have the DW and while it's not a daily driver, id like it ready to be.

Any input is appreciated, along with any other suggestions.

How do adjustable track bars have anything to do with death wobble?

Alot of the time is the track bar hole on the axle side being whollow out

Yes a wollowed out hole can cause death wobble. Applies to the bedroom as well.
