Death Wobble
Hey I need some help please. I have a 2007 4door JK Rubicon. I seem to get a certain type of wobble when I hit a bump or pothole. The dealer cannot find anything wrong. Everything is tight and the steering stabilizer has been replaced. Any suggestions?

I am having the exact same problem and it started about a week ago. Everything seems tight. I'll hit a small bump and it will start wobbling til I slow down. Dores it have anything to do with camber?

When I got death wobble (TJ) at the 3 year old mark, it was several things that just wore out.
1) steering stabilizer (was actually leaking) lol
2) track bar bushings were shot (got an adjustable JKS)
3) ball joints were going going gone (replaced them)
Been a year now and still drives great !!

PS - MODS, this should not be in the Rumors section !!
