Print out Planman's DW check list and have them check through it. If you leave it to them guessing, could take a while.

OK. Making some progress. The Jeep dealer did NOTHING. Seriously NOTHING. So, I followed Planman's instructions and bought some grade-8 9/16ths bolts, grade 8 Nylock nuts and grade 8 washers and went to work on my trackbar bolts. No more death wobble now. I didnt have a torque wrench that went up to 125 ft/lbs so I just tightened them very tight. It seems that with the metal sleeves inside the trackbar bushings you can only tighten them so tight anyways.
I also put on a new Pro-Comp stabilizer. I still feel a wobble in the steering wheel between 40-50 mph. Not sure if thats related or not. I just had the tires balanced but maybe they screwed it up or I threw a weight? Anyhow, my Death Wobble seems to be gone. Thanks to all for the tips and advice. This forum Rocks!
