Upgrade after death wobble...
So my 2010 JK sport with an AEV 3.5" lift and 35" Goodyear Mud Terrain with Kevlar experienced the death wobble on the freeway at about 70 mph. It wasn't good at all. I've had the lift on for years and the tires normally rotated and balanced (as close as they can be) every 3-5k miles. Turns out these tires suck to balance as they wear but they are awesome. Either way, I broke my trackbar mount off the axle and had issues now with worn shocks, ball joints and u-joints. Rather than just fix I decided to upgrade to an Offroad Evolution Coilover suspension, airbumps, new balljoints and ujoints, truss and gussetting as well as a supercharger from RIPP. Looking forward to the finished product.
Ordered the parts in mid-sept and have the RIPP. Off-road evolution is stupid slow on getting the parts out though. You'd think for 10k they'd be on top of it. So if you are in the market for this suspension prepare to wait until you go grey to get your stuff. I was told two weeks on the parts two weeks ago and now they are saying mid-oct. Meanwhile my jeep is on blocks waiting.
I'll update when I get some parts.

Familytime, I'm sure. The wheels slammed back and forth out of control until I could bring it to a stop. I cannot believe I didn't roll. I think it was a combination of bad ball joints, unbalanced tires and possibly a bent tie rod. Either way the entire front axle is off now preparing to weld on a new trackbar mount along with the Artec Truss and Gussets. If only I had my coilovers and long arm kit from ORE...
