I was driving on highway in my stock suspension (except shocks) and all stock steering, stock wheels balanced all right. I hit a small pothole on expressway at 70 mph and jeep gets violent death wobbles for about 10 seconds then it just goes away and the vehicle does 70 just fine and has been driving fine ever since. The only time this thing has ever had the wobbles was when i first bought it, when i test drove it I didn't get over 45 and then after I bought it and got on highway right over 45 mph it should so bad I could hardly keep it in the line and felt like it might flip or something( turned out being the vehicle sat in car lot for so long snow built up in wheels and threw balance way off, chipped off all the ice and snow and it drove fine), and I felt this at 70! Could this be something in my steering setup going?

Its a balance issue or short bushings. No deathwobble occurs at this speed.

I know some of the time you may have DW and can accelerate through it but once you let off the gas the geometry of the front self aligns and throws it off and everything goes berserk again. Though this is not your case --

I would suggest checking the tires and every bushing on the front. A bump at these speeds can throw you around for a few seconds if it isn't being properly absorbed.

I would start by checking the control arms bushings.
