I know this question had been beaten too many times but I’m having trouble and can not find a solid answer...
Going 70mph in sunny hot Florida I hit a pot hole and experienced full on death wobble. Cool. The same day I ordered a new track bar, steering stabilizer, tie rod, and drag link. Installed with the help of a buddy and a few beers and back on the road with new gear and an alignment.
following three days...
No full on death wobble but definitely some play under there. hit a few pot holes, and the under carriage just shakes but not bad enough to be considered a death wobble.
Next day I tighten the track bar to 155 foot lbs (recommendation) and drove.
Not apt of play under there however, at 50-58 Mph, even on smooth road the steering column, and under neath shake/wobble again not enough to pull over but enough to make your butthole tighten.
I am considering replacing the FRONT TOP/BOTTOM control arms but haven’t decided yet...
Also, the mounting hole for the track bar that goes into the frame (passenger side) SEEMS to NOT be warped... it looks perfectly round and smooth...
side note: I am having an issue filling the new bushings with grease... the new zero fitting rejects most of my grease and the bushings aren’t all “plump” could this be the culprit??If you think it is, how do I get the zerk and new bushings to take the grease?
thoughts?
