Any front axel failures without a lift kit? - Moved to correct forum

[TREX10]

Dealership originally told me that a lift would not void the warranty and I had a 2" Rough Country installed by 4 Wheel Parts.
After less than 5,000 miles, the front end started to shimmy and the dealer is saying the lift caused it and is NOT covered by warranty.

If the lift genuinely cause it - so be it. Hopefully, 4 WP will work with me but I've never had a 2" lift on any vehicle be a problem!

I did read through one thread with axel failure but it also had a lift.

Anyone else??

I have a 2” lift with no issues.
I did it myself to make sure it was done right. Almost each post I read like this is companies installing the lifts.
Makes you wonder.
I have 4600 mile on mine.

That's awesome! I hope it lasts - mine is just about that mark and had no leaks on garage floor and I only drive it 2-3 days a week. Yesterday it gave out.
It was installed by a very reputable shop, so I expected it to be done correctly. I actually shied away from doing it myself for that reason.

I'm wondering if there have been failures that weren't lifted!

Thanks for responding.
