Was experiencing death wobble at 55. There was play in the trackpar, so I replaced that and the wobble went away for about 200 miles. Now I'll sometimes get a vibration at around 55, but if I tap the brake or accelerate hard I can keep it rolling smoothly.

Anyway, I've read that control arm bushings can be the culprit. These look pretty worn out to me, but it's a 96 and a lot of things look worn out. I live in a city and don't have access to a garage so all the work I do I do out on the street in front of my place. It's a real a PIA sometimes and so I don't want to fight with these bushings if I don't have to.

96 country. Stock. 140,000.

 

A long time ago.

 

Yeah they look pretty toasted. And I feel your pain about working on the street in front of your house. I put up cones to make sure other drivers stay away from me if I am laying underneath the vehicle.

Many people will say to just buy new control arms because trying to get the bushings in and out of those thin sheet metal arms is a PITA.

That's all well and dandy for everything other than the axle end uppers because they're part of the axle. I've never done those ones but have heard of people having frustrations with them.

 

That's just silly as well as dangerous.
Take it to a shop and have all the bushings replaced at the same time. It will be a lot less expensive in the long run vs getting run over.
If the wobble went away for 200 miles but returned I'll bet the track bar fasteners were not properly torqued or the bore is wallowed out.
