dreaded death wobble suggestions
Seabee_BUC:
Death Wobble is also related to how parallel the track bar and the tie rod are. If you look at a stock Jeep they are pretty close to being parallel. When people lift their rigs, these angles change and contribute to death wobble. Like Kirk said, do a tie rod flip, get your rig professionally aligned, and changing out your bushings should cure it. Adding the steering stabilizer will make control minute wobble that you probably won't be able to feel.

Donty you mean the track bar and the drag link? If either of those were paralell to the tie rod I think hed have very serious issues

BlacXJeep:
Just making sure cuz that is how I have always understood it.

oh i figured as much but i just need a real excuse to say that but back on the topic of death wobble, i had that problem with my zj and it was NOT the sway bar or links i mean hell, i drive with my disconnected sometimes, like after a ride, and i can take her up to 65 no problem. i went through and checked all the bushings but one and it was the axel side trac bar bushing being close none existent. in the future my friend just check all of the bushing then if there is still the problem its something alot worse.
p.s. its nice to know im not exactly the only zj here
