Well the wife says the bouncing and the death wobble only comes at low speeds like 25 and under. She says 30 and over it drives like a dream.

I had the DW battle for 2 years until I finally got it right. I've beaten the crap out if it in Colorado and Utah, driven 80mph + afterwards and never a hint of wobble again. Be patient and you will be rewarded!

 

What was your cause of DW Lisa?

 

This sounds like a poorly balanced front tire.

 

After putting a Teraflex front tracbar, Synergy trackbar brace, Currie Tie Rod on; it will still occur. Finally after putting on 9/16 bolts on the trackbar and getting a new alignment ; it vanished. Not long after I dumped the 35 MTR's for 37 Toyo MT's. solid as a rock. Honestly I think the MTR's are too soft for such a heavy 4 door and the harmonic vibrations occur easier on them. Just my theory.

 

Alright, need some advice. Not sure if what I'm feeling is the DW but when I hit 55/60+ mph I get a mild vibration in the steering wheel and mild shake in the tires and stick shift. I'm only running 33's and added the new SS on the front end. Do you think it's just poorly balanced tires???

 

sounds more like out of balance on tires - if where you get them balanced is using the clip on weights, tell them to use stick-on weights. They can both fall off but clip weights fall off easier.

Real DW will make you ask for your brown pants.. the front end will feel like it's bouncing all over and sound like the front end is exploding...

Some aftermarket SS will also cause a 'push' and may create vibrations..the stock SS is all you really need.

 

Thanks, I'll check out the balance of the tires.

 

I run no stabilizer and usually when i get a wobble its my toe in being off.

 

Thought my issue was the tires. Would start to shimmy at 40 and stop at 50. Turned out by changing out my b-joints, the shimmy went away! I think it was pre-death wobble I was experiencing.

OP...please update us...thanks!
