That's to much pressure, if you was to go back to one of your first Threads when you was asking about tires and the pressure. We told you those tires would ride rough because of the ply rating and you should run about 35 psi. Also you have more rim then tire so the less sidewall the less flex of the tire.

Bumped it down feels a lil better I was thinking it was the alignment or something needs to get tweaked from what everyone was posting the shop keeps playing with it never rode like that before even with the death wobble rode smooth until I hit a bump of course lol 😆
 
So.. the shop set your tires to 57 PSI? That seems... excessive. My suggestion would be to not use that shop anymore.

I'm unsure in anyone here can be a ton of help with regard to low profile tires on a jeep, it is one of the worst things you can do for off roading. I used to have a car with low profile tires and I think they required higher TP than what many of us run here, but it's been a number of years.

Did you go to the shop and tell them "My jeep needs an alignment" or did you go in and say "It's driving funny' ?

Alignment came with the new tires ball joints track bar yea they had them all 55 60 now I'm down to 35 did make a diff somewhat gonna install a few more parts like track bar and sector shaft brace and see how that does. I've always ran this jeep on 22x35s and it's never driving all shifty the way it does left to right just feels way to sharp if ya know what I mean I just keep on taking it back because they did the work and I'm not the type to let anyone get away I payed u do your part which there trying been on the alignment rack 3 times and every time it gets a lil better lol that's on them atleast there sticking by there work and keep on trying
 
You need more caster. Do you have adjustable control arms or geometry correction brackets? If not you need some most car alignment shops won't adjust your caster you need a specialist type 4x4 off road shop
