I have a TJ coming to the shop next week and the only thing I know for sure is that it has a serious case of death wobble. What are some of the common causes of this? I am just looking of a place to start. I don't think the jeep has any lift and maybe 31s, at least that's what I'm told.
I am going to start with the obvious stuff like TREs, bushings, and possible loose bolts.
Thx

That's more the case on JK's.. almost guarantee it's the tracbar bolt.. Or the front end needs aligned.. |

Check the alignment too. I had good TREs and the track bar bolt was fine. Had bad DW around 40. Did an alignment and it fixed the DW completely.

OK I'll definitely check out these things first. Whatever I find out I'll post up what was wrong. Still waiting on them to being the jeep to my shop.
