On another note, I have had a shimmy/wobble for a long time that's really starting to **** me off! It's not quite death wobble, its like the shake/shimmy you get right before serious death wobble. I can't seem to figure out what it is, nor could two well respected off road shops.. I've basically replaced the entire front end of the jeep. Iron Rock Offroad double shear track bar, new front and rear wheel bearings, adjustable lcas, all u joints are nice and tight, alignment is good, tried 3 different sets of wheels and tires, etc, etc, the list goes on. The wobble is the the strongest between 50-60 mph. If anyone has any advice on this issue it would be much appreciated.
I had the same issue a while back and it endend up being my old tie rod, after i replaced the tie rod i never had it again so id check it just to make sure

You replaced the tie rod and both tie rod ends?

That would make sense, because while its wobbling the steering feels real funny. Weird thing is all my tie rod ends are nice and tight..

Here's a random pic I just have on my phone. Can't see the wheels too well though. One of these days I'm going to get this build thread up to date. A couple weeks ago I got the Nate's front bumper installed. I really like it so far.
