I know this topic has been posted a lot...I have a 98 gc v8 5.9l....I've changed the tie rod ends, drag link , and track bar and have gotten an alignment ....i'm still getting the DW 80 km and above.... my steering stabalizer seemed fine.....if i were to change it would I just be masking the problem?...also I know my steering box is going bad could that also be another cause?..any suggestions would be appreciated..Thanks

check all the bushings on the front arms. I really don't have much experience in the death wobble, but if those bushings are weak, they will cause issues.

Do you have any sort of lift?

donstylez

no lift it's stock

what is your definition of a deathwobble? Does it just vibrate at certain speeds or wobble that bad you have trouble maintaining control?

donstylez

wobbles to the point where i can't maintain control....but as an update i think the death wobble is fixed i got my tires balanced today..and all i have right now is a slight shimmy of the steering wheel once i hit 100km...if i pass 100 it's fine and if it's under 100 it's fine so i may have a bad tire

Balancing was kind of what I was getting at, but a wobble that bad because of balancing is unsual.

I had DW and decided to do all the easy free stuff (i work at a shop so i could balance my own tires) first and what do you know my DW went away too after a wheel balance.

just get the monroe magnessium steering stabilizer from a local parts store.... i had death obble at anything more that 35 mph... the stabilizer looked good but i took it off to just see one day and i was able to push it together with my pinkies.... now with this stabliizer no problems at all and better handiling.

we carry both the monroe and the MOOG steering stabilizers. I might be doing shocks in my 04 soon.

If you end up needing one here's a link to prices for them on the site.

I suggest rechecking frt end I.E ball joints bad tires will set bad ball joints in motion he may have weak shocks also not able to control dual problem
