... Death Wobble
Well, I got a couple hundred yards of Death Wobble this mornin. Headin out of my house, got up to about 45-50, and there's some ripples in the road. Other bad part of the road is it's a wide bend in the road.
Well, I was in the outside lane, started shaking violently in the beginning of the turn. Went straight across 3 lanes, GF freaking out. I'm giggling, 'cause of the adrenalin. Once I got the Jeep straightened out and back in my lane, I looked at her and said "Well, that's Death Wobble. Gonna be a long night for me."
Basically, I'm going to loosen all bolts, tighten them. Then check bushings.
I think it's my tires since I parked outside last night and it was cold and my pressure was low.

if you didnt loosen the bolts in the steering components(ex tracbar) while putting in the lift and then tighten when finished the lift and full weight of the jeep was on them then you should do this. dont tighten everything until the jeep is standing by itself without a jack or anything holding the weight of the body
