I had the same problem in my 90 xj and it turned out to be the rear driveshaft. I noticed that at a certain speed i would get the wobble but not in my steering. Instead i noticed that my gear shifter was shaking horribly, more or less because i was focusing on the steering. I got to my house and shook the driveshaft noticing a wiggle that was all too easy to acheive. I went the only route i knew and purchased a SYE from ebay. I DID NOT get a tom woods, i got a packaged deal from cj tatton that included the SYE and the cv driveshaft for just a hair over $400. Well worth it. Check it out.

I just noticed that im labled a "NEWBIE" LOL oh well gotta start somewhere right?

this guy named it all. you can have brand new trackbar and steering set up and still have it if your ball joints and bushings are bad. wheels balanced help hugely too. if you do check what he's named you'll surely fix it

Hell I got 4 inchs in the front and 2 n a half in rear and I got major dw issues and it wanders all over the road hell u know its bad when u get passed by a city bus cause Ur scared of the 45mph and up range

I put a tcase lowering kit on it I fabbed and it seems to be causing some bondage while in 4wd or three wheel wonder lol any clues on that

you might need to shorten your drive shafts. lowering your tcase might have shortened the distance to your axles causing your driveshafts to bind themselves up

Should I use a t-case lowering kit

No. that just gets rid of vibrations. U have more than vibrations and must correct one of your steering components to fix true death wobble

The fronts a telescope though I have no sye broke folks can't afford that stuff. I did disconnect the rear sway bay bc it apparently has no use.

not sure i know exactly what you have. but theres shops that will cut shorten and weld drive shafts shorter. i put a dana 44 front end on my ranger that had IFS and when they shortened my drive shaft they made it too long and it was binding up badly. they just shortened it again to the right length and was all good

I get bad viberations in steering wheel at 48 mph and up till the dw is occurring

i thought you were talking about the bondage in 4 wheel. my bad, but that article posted by storm101 has everything you need to know about death wobble

I replaced the entire draglink today and all tie rods and the steering stabilizer. and it SEEMS to be cured. i definately have no more bump steer. not really sure about the DEATH WOBBLE. What do you guys think. is it just waiting to scare the crap out of me or do u think its cured?

People always say the steering stabilizer just covers up your problem. It's hard to say though
