    death wobble.. Fixing it with the steering stabilizer?

    True. I even replaced the steering gear. The original was fine but had to go as part of the steering conversion. I did find one of the four mounting bolts sheered.

    death wobble.. Fixing it with the steering stabilizer?

    Agreed. I'mnold enough to have used a bubble balancer at the Ford dealer and then the "new fangled" dynamic balancers. I'm sure the truck will smooth out the rest of the way when I pick the ten pounds of weight off the rears lol. I'll use shot if I need to go further. I wish I wouldn't have put...

    death wobble.. Fixing it with the steering stabilizer?

    So after more driving, so far so good. From what I can see on my personal truck, it was primarily a tire issue that started the wobble issue. The issue was always brought on while braking and once started, would not go away until muscled over to the side of the road and stopped. Very violent...

    death wobble.. Fixing it with the steering stabilizer?

    So anyway, aside from that, I just drove it around awhile after rotating the tires. Too early to tell just yet but the truck drives better and hasn't done it yet. The tires that are now on the front have no balance weights whatsoever. The ones I have moved to the rear have all sorts of weights...

It's almost constant now and more violent than ever. I think the severe toe out that it had was actually keeping the...

    death wobble.. Fixing it with the steering stabilizer?

    Thanks. I had the wobble before the crossover as well. I was hoping it would go away with the upgrade. I wish I would have paid a little more for the gear from ord that had the extra port for assist but woulda, shoulda coulda I guess.

    death wobble.. Fixing it with the steering stabilizer?

    Yes, my next step is rotate tires. I have 12 bolts and 37s on the truck and I think it's the PVC warlocks that keep them so unbalanced. We'll see how it acts with the swapped tires. On a side note, this truck does NOT act up on bumps. It's always while braking but it's not a rotor issue.

    death wobble.. Fixing it with the steering stabilizer?

    Has anyone ever come up with a real solution to this? I was almost thrown out the window today lol! I have an ord lift and zero rates. New front springs. Just replaced steering box, king pin bushings and springs, added crossover steering from ord, set for (found it was toed out) and checked...
