bad death wobble
My truck has bad death wobble its a 95 f 250 4x4 but has a dana 60 straight axle off an 88 f 350 4x4 also the truck has alift kit on it 6 inches of lift.if I hit a bump or sunken man hole cover I get the death wobble. I hit a bunch of small pot holes in the road today driving home and got death wobble so bad I had to hit the brakes and stop the truck in the center of the road.the jerk kid in back of me in a little Honda flew around me and just about hit me as he gave me the finger and floored his car around me ugh. anyway this has been going on for a while now. I put the stock tires on all 4 tires been balanced and a front end alignment done and I still get death wobble so i put my 35" tires on still get the death wobble so its not the tires what is making it does this?. what should I check next this is driving me nuts it really is its really dangerous. I put a stabilizer on and it still did the death wobble did nothing to stop it at all. anyone?
well the track bar is there and it has new bushings on it so I dont think its that.I may try new tie rods and see what happends.I did try a stabilizer it didnt seem to do anything for me at all not sure why?can I see a pic of your stabilizer and how you have it mounted.thanks
Wow. I put a single stabilizer on my 94 with a dana 60 and it settled it right down. It did have a new tie rod though. I'd try that, just make sure the kit comes with the polyurethane bushing that keeps the rod from "rolling" on the ball joints. This rolling allows a lot of the play in the steering and is largely responsible for this death wobble effect.
