Jeep jtd death wobble

Also, realize that the more you have actual DW events, the more likely your tie-rod ends (TRE) for the drag link and tie-rod, as well as the TRE and bushings on your trackbar, will be getting worse.
I got a new 2.5 ton aluminum doestch tie rod and drag link not long ago and a new synergy trackbar. It was one of the later recommendations from a mechanic to replace in trying to figure out what is causing it. It still happened after.
 
I will look again and torque them down tomorrow jf needed. I have not checked my unit bearing, what would i be looking for with the unit bearing?
C

check the Jam nuts/bolts. The Arm should not be spinning on the Joint. A while back my front lowers came loose on the axle side.. was getting a clunk. Also make sure all the control arm bolts are torqued to spec.

Have you checked your unit bearings?
 
It may be worth throwing on a different set of wheels/tires if you have them, just to make sure the issue isn’t there.
I had these tires and wheels recently balanced. The other set of tires and wheels i have are the overland stock wheels. They would look goofy but i will try it out for a trial run.

My point is that if you continue to have DW you’ll need to replace the TREs and maybe the TB bushing as well because they’ll be trashed.
