No but it might make it worse. Some states require that Hydro assited steering (ram assist) not be used in a vehicle used on the highway.

Maybe you lost some of that lead on the Left tire/wheel. Something happened when you hit the first bump. Tell them to check that wheel again and to use the glue on weights. I have never had one of those come off.

They should not be loose!!! Find out why they are loose. Is it from wear or from the adjustment nut backing off or what, and then fix it.

Sitting on flat ground they should not be moveable at all by even a pry bar. If they move then something is wrong.

Nothing should be loose on the UCAs or the LCAs either for that matter. They limit the forward or reverse movement of the differential and should only move when the suspension moves and that could only be an up and down movement.

I was sitting here and playing on several different forums and saw you were still around so why not respond.

When i look at the axle end of the trackbar, it makes me think. There's no bracket coming over the trackbar bushing. The bolt is simply bolted on one side of the axle. You said there's play in there so that's probably you culprit. When you have someone turn the steering wheel back and forth, is there ANY movement in that joint? If there is, it can cause the wobble you are experiencing.

by the way, describe your death wobble? what is it like?
