Yep, and you get to
be a believer with proof!
And I believe multiple people have said "pull it away from that shop"

In fairness, the op's question was not about a repair or recommendation about repair. The question was whether the shop's concern was legit and should he pull out of the shop.
The second thing you should have learned is the dry steering test is only the first part of the test.The first thing I learned how to do on my first TJ, was how to do a dry steering test!!!!
I'm not a guru but I can diagnose when I have death wobble and know how to get rid of it.
I'm still trying to figure out how it gets to anything past the first post without pictures of the front end and then the part(s) in question posted up to help us solve the problem.
I'm also more than a tad worried about any shop that regularly works on TJ's that can't at least proffer a very well educated guess as to what brand most aftermarket components are under a rig.
The good news is the OP is treating us not too differently than his shop is treating him, so there is that. Someone buy that boy a camera and show him how to use it.
..... And one truth remains, that a shop that specializes in 4x4 is seemingly unable to correct a simple trackbar issue.

The term “specializes” can be thrown around like “universal “ what I say about something that is universal “is it fits nothing”
Well, that’s new.My original concerns have been addressed, but my post seems to have gone sideways since.
Hey all,
My 2006 TJ has developed a death wobble. I took it to a local shop that specializes in 4x4 and performance upgrades.
The jeep has a 4" lift that was installed by a previous owner.
The shop quickly identified the trackbar as the cause, but is unable to change it unless I can identify the make. I have no idea the make, and not sure why this is relevant to replace it. He comments that he needs the make to ensure the 'Pins' line up correctly, as all lift kits are a little different.
We are in a bit of a stalemate with no work proceeding until the make of the lift kit or track bar can be identified.
Is this a legit question and concern, or Should I quickly pull my Jeep out of there and find another shop?
Help!
