Mine starts as slight wobble but turns to death wobble if you don't pass 65 or slow down below 60.

 

My sweet spot in the XJ was 35mph. It either happened at the shift into third gear, or I was safe. Of course I dreaded every bump on the road, too. Turned out to be a loose axle-side trackbar bolt.

 

Yeah i have to check on mine every now and then cause of that

 

Mine was 45-50 . Not anymore tho

 

Ykydaxjw you pull another Cherokee all the way back up to the top where everyone meets even though you have a busted ujoint.

 

Got ya. Well I'm kinda new to the whole jeep scene. And no I haven't fixed it.

 

Am I the only XJ owner here that has never experienced DW? Well............wobble period for that matter. Sure, it had alot of drift when I first bought it but, that was because of old worn out tie rod ends.

 

Mine's never done it but i felt it in one i was test driving years ago.

 

My first XJ had DW. Ball joints were shot. My current XJ hasn't had that problem yet and it's my DD and newspaper route rig. But, if it wasn't for my XJ, many of my customers wouldn't get their newspaper every day.

 

Sorry, to stay on topic. YKYDAXJW, you never have a problem running an 86-122 mile newspaper route 7 days a week no matter what the weather. Through t-storms (lately), over fallen trees (because you forgot the chainsaw) ,up steep muddy hills and through overflowing creeks. And many of your customers give you bigger tips than usual because you were the first carrier to be able to deliver their paper even with (whatever) the weather or road conditions.

 

ykydaxj when you perform a shop grade 100 point inspection before a 15 mile trip on the highway, and just check fluid levels when going for a 6 hour wheeling trip.

 

this is so true. My GF looks at me funny cause I do this

 

Only time I've felt wobble was after hitting the mud pits (ok they weren't "pits" per-say but rather large puddles) and not spraying out the mud from the easily cloggable stocker rims.

YKYDAXJW you're running 10 minutes late for work and see a sweet XJ at the gas station and are bummed the rest of the day cause you couldn't stop and make friends.

 

 

Yep.............been there.
