Death wobble after suspension lift and stacked lift?
Hi all I just recently put a 4.5" rough country suspension lift on my 06 ford f250 now I have the death wobble one of my questions are does anyone here run the bd adjustable track bar? It's a pretty good price at 260.00 with the poly ballpoint verses the 6 to 800.00 track bars with the hiem joints also my front end is nosing down about a little over an inch so I was going to buy the bd adjustable track bar with ready lifts 1.5" spacer that mounts on the bottom of the spring and daul steering stabilizers any input on stacking the 1.5" spacer or on the bd track bar would be greatly appreciated thanks oh 1 more thing will I need to add a pitman drop arm once I add 1.5" spacers?

If you bought the full 4.5" RC lift then you have everything you need. I have the same setup along with their dual steering stabilizers and carrier bearing drop. I also run 18x9 wheels with 35x12.5 Toyo M/T's and have no steering issues unless I hit repeated large holes (had the same issue on the stock suspension and tires as well). I would not use heim joints on a daily driven truck that sees snow, they wear out very quickly and are very rough. If you put the 1.5" spacers on you're going to probably look ***-heavy. The very small rake that the RC lift has keeps it so you don't get that look along with making it so you can load it up without the rear squatting.

Yes I bought the full kit it will not see any snow as I live in south louisiana I know the hiem joints will be rough and harsh that's why I'm wondering about the the bd track bar with a poly joint if any one has used it to stop the wobble and I don't think I would be *** heavy I have 6" blocks in the back and with the 1.5 spacers on the 4.5 springs I should sit level unless I pull something which I can add airbags if I was that worried about that I just can't stand the front sitting lower thanks for the reply

Your ball joints are probably bad too, I just installed a carli leveling kit on mine and it came with an adjustable track bar with a heim joint on the drivers side I also replaced the ball joint on the passenger side of the track bar and between the ball joints and the track bar my death woble is gone.
