ok so i have a 2 inch lift w about 2500 miles on it bought it new i have 31 inch bfgs i picked up 2d off craigsllist that my buddy put on when i got my u joints done now i was driving and front end is clunking still and i have deathwoble at 55 i think the wobble is a balancing issue and the sway bar endlinks might be my clunking any opinions??????

 

Did you take it to get aligned after the lift? Pretty rare to have death wobble at that height, sounds to me like you might have an alignment issue.
Might want to double check that the tires are in balance as well.

 

Maybe bad balljoints or tierod ends. The added weight of the bigger tires will make worn parts rear their ugly head.

 

yea i got it done right after i feel like its a balancing problem but the clunking is pissing me the f*cK off

 

Get your tires balanced and get a wrench down there and tighten every bolt you can get your hands near (this includes control arms, track bar, sway bar links, shocks, etc)

Make sure your air pressure is equal in both front tires (I've gotten DW before because on of my front tires was at 32 PSI while the other was at 12 PSI; filled it up and it was good to go).

Visually inspect ALL bushings in the front end.

Then re-tighten the track bar again.

And you can get DW at any height. Stock XJs can suffer from it too, although it's not as common.

 

Oh and read this to fully understand what you're dealing with:

And then read it again to make sure you fully understand it.

 

55 mph is the magic number for DW I swear haha. There's some good advice in this thread. Good luck bud. Mine happened to be a tire balance issue.

 

I have an 8 inch and when I installed it it had the DW. I run 35 inch MTR's - I would get the DW @ 35 to 45. Since I run beadlocks, I have to use beads to balance (no weights) - so after tightening everything down and finding a big f**king wrench and doing my alignment it ceased. To be honest just about every bolt needed to be tightened. So now when I go out wheeling I spend 10 minutes after checking every bolt. I haven't had an issue with it since

 

alighment killed the deathwobble

 

What ended up being the problem?

 

*balancing the tires sorry
