Death wobble help
ive got a 98 XJ that shakes (at the right front tire) like it wants to go back in time at 65 mph but im to scared to hit 88 because i think it might explode.
so far ive replaced
all ball joints
both front u-joints
both front wheel bearing hubs
all tie rod ends including the spreader bar
the only things left are the track bar and steering dampner shock. The look ok. any chance it could be them?

Sure it's not the tire causing the vibration? Check the control arm bushings and have the front end aligned. A steering dampner will not cure a death wobble, it will only mask the real problem.
