I have an 86 Jeep Cherokee with a 7" lift on 35" BFG Mud terrains and have the death wobble and dont know what the cause of it is. Any suggestions?

 

get a good solid adjustable tracbar and good mounting bracket for it. there are good ones out there for $400. mine was $200 for a rockkrawler for my 4inch lift.

 

Try searching death wobble - many,many,many,many,many,many,many,many,many,many, many,many,many,many,many,many,many,many,many,many, many,many,many,many,many,many, Post on this one.

 

Your caster angle is probably out of spec, and check all your front end parts for play.

 

holy crap how do these threads keep getting posted....

 

Okay, thank you all for your help, it has help us progress on finishing my jeep.

 

I just went through 3 months of replace a part, adjust a part, buy a part. Ended up getting Ironmans adjustable upper control arms and have adjusted caster about 4 times. Now have my wobble down to just a slight hint at 55. Gonna give it some more adjusting tomorrow. I must have one that likes the +2-3 degrees of caster.

 

op=7 post meaning NEWB tech him the way of the search button lmao

 

Have you checked tire balancing, and alignment? Possibly you have bad tie rod ends, maybe bad u joints??

 

I think he got it, see below

 

The cause? The 7 inches of lift that the guys in white lab coats at AMC didn't factor in when they designed the suspension back in the early 80s.

 

I checked my tire balanceing and allignment and all that is good so i think that im going to get an upper adjustable control arm and hopefully that will fix it. I have put way to much time and money into this jeep for it to still not be working after 5 months!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I did check the allignment and the balancing and thats all good so i think im going to get an upper control arm tonight or tomorrow. Thanx for the info.

 

track bar ?
