Wobble at 50
I have had a wobble at 50 mph for a while now and thought it was my tires so i rotated tires and still a wobble. Is it the trac bar thats my guess? Theres no front end alignment needed because i had that done a couple months ago. Help if you can

50 ---55 Tires are prob. the culprit.. Mine are a constant source of vibes at those speeds . Get them rebalanced and go from there

If you have the same wobble after rotating your tires, it most likely isn't a wheel balance problem. It's pretty inexpensive to have that checked so go ahead but, get under your Jeep and shake the heck out of your track bar. If it budges AT ALL at the top or bottom it is either loose or worn. Bottom bolt is supposed to be 72 FT. LBS. and the top bolt 64 FT. LBS. try re-torquing it before replacing anything. I've had wobbles just from the track bar coming loose. While you're under there shake and inspect your steering componants as well.
