are the 33's new or used?
are they radial or bias?

could be the tires, or as said, something is loose/worn underneath.

Brand new 33s and radial I think, the website isn't great for info lol

How would bias/radial make a difference??

bias are not round. lol. they tend to be hard to balance.

i like bias off road tires better than radials, but until they warm up, it's a bumpy ride.

since you have brand new radials, you must have something worn out under the front end of the jeep.
check ball joints, rod ends, bushings and shocks to find out where the problem is coming from.

I have the same issue i put my stock tires on did the alignment myself with a hunter 9000 machine. The stock tires i know where not balanced i took the weights off was going to rebalanced but decided not too. No death wobble with stock tires but the 35s and they are perfectly balanced have a slight bit of dw get it aligned with the tires your going to run. Just a thought might help you!

Thx, I think it's a case of look and check the front suspension and then rectify and problems followed by an alignment with my 33s...
