Help me cure the death wobble
1999 Cherokee with 4.5 inch short arm rough country lift, rugged ridge HD steering and new ball joints, rubicon express track bar, bracket, and bracket brace. I do have a Dodge Durango steering box in it that has a bit of play in the wheel. I do not have a steering stabalizer. Why do I still have the death wobble and why does the front end just feel loose? I don't want to buy parts that arnt going to fix it,
Is it the steering box or the no steering stabalizer that's casing it? Those are the only two things I can think of.

Alignment, ball joints, tie rod ends, out of balance tires or bent wheel. Stabilizers never cause death wobble. They do cure it but only temporarily. Never replace one to cure it. It just makes things worse.
