death wobble

Hey guys! I have a situation where I bought my TJ and had the whole death wobble situation so I thought going with a HEIM steering kit would help and it did not if anything made it worse. So I want to go back to OEM but I have a limited amount of money. The HEIM steering kit has 5/8 bolts so I...

I know this question had been beaten too many times but I’m having trouble and can not find a solid answer... Going 70mph in sunny hot Florida I hit a pot hole and experienced full on death wobble. Cool. The same day I ordered a new track bar, steering stabilizer, tie rod, and drag link...

I am looking to compile a list of all the parts that make up the front end of a jeep. All the joints in the steering components on my Jeep are obviously in bad condition. I would like to replace them myself but this is my daily driver and I work all day leaving next to no light to work with...

How’s it going guys? I have started up a YouTube channel and I am doing how to videos and product installs. In my first video I correct my bump steer issue. I will be doing more as time goes by. I also have a few products I have have installed on my jeep and just thought it would be cool to...

Hi everyone, I am a new member to the forum and have owned my first TJ for about six months. Love the Jeep, but I’m having a serious problem with death wobble. After reading this forum and other sites it appears that the track bar is most likely suspect. I bought a new one today to install this...

Hey all, so I just replaced some bad wheel bearings (DIY) installation went smoothly and the noise is gone but now I've been getting the death wobble at about 60-65 mph usually when slowing down I did not have this before I did the bearings. The bearings i bought were MOOG assemblies so not...

Just installed a 3.25" lift and 2 days on the road it happened... Death Wobble. Wow, don't want that to happen again. My main question is "What is the best heavy duty steering kit for a 2000 TJ 4.0L Manual?" I checked the track bar and it seems very secure during a dry steering test. I plan to...

Just purchase a 2006 TJ with 101K miles. Runs well but at these speeds the steering wheel shakes badly. Had the dealer replace Tie rod, Drag Link, Steering Shock. Ball joints are tight or at least not needed at this time I believe. Am I looking at the right components or is it more...

I have an 01 Jeep Wrangler sport(manual). It is on 35's and has a 4 in lift. Every time I shift it throws the jeep to the right really hard. Also it shakes VERY bad and you are never able to keep it straight. It is very hard to control the steering and is getting scary to drive. Another thing...

So i got my first TJ but this goes back before i got it. I had a xj that came stock, bought new rims and tires for it and started to get a wobble/ shake with in the front end at around 50-55mph. I then got my tj and when i first bought it stock it had no wobble in the front end. I ended up...

Death Wobble is no mystery, it is caused by loose bolts, damaged components, or improper installation. Look at the picture below and follow along: First, the tie rod (yellow) has ends that attach to a knuckle on the driver side and the drag link on the passenger side. As you could imagine...
