Death Wobble in a stock JK Unlimited
You should be able to run without a steering stabilizer at all.
If you're ever trying to fix death wobble, you should take off the steering stabilizer to find out if you fixed it. Heck, when ever I change something up front I take the steering stabilizer off, drive around to make sure I didn't mess anything up.

Doesnt seem to make sense but it is true.
It has been proven that a bad SS can cause death wobble, one that has flat dead spots or bad reaction. I have seen it first hand; take off the SS and drives fine put on a new one and drives fine. put the old bad one on and bam death wobble.

I agree with Spartan99
It's the steering stabilizer, or "dampener"
I had the same thing happen to me.
You almost had to bring the thing to a stop before it would stop.
The replacement went on upside down from the original,
with seal and piston pointing down,
He said that this replacement part should prevent it from having any further premature failures
made sense to me.
Good Luck

I had the same thing happen to me twice before the factory warranty ran out and both times it was the steering stabilizer. I sm now looking into the RC Dual Stabilizer to add more control.
