Check your torque specs?
Did you follow the instructions to the T?

Agree, your control arms, track bar, sway bar links must be torqued to spec. I have the same kit and never had a problem.

Ok guys just got back from the shop
Took my lady there and they found out that my steering stabilizer
Had a leak on it so I got that changed

And I was running on stock rims with the old tires which
Made the problem even more

I was lucky that I found the tires I was looking for
So changed them

And so far problem solved hope that
"death wobble" never comes again

The ride feels solo much smooth now
