I replaced the track bar on my 96 GC yesterday because I had massive death wobble and it drove fine for two trips about 42 miles round trip took it out this morning going down the highway maybe 55-60mph hit a slight bump and bam here comes the wobble again almost got rear ended by a 18 wheeler because of this :grim: got back up to speed an it didnt do it again. the rest of the way there but once again on the return trip home it did it once again same speed a bout 50 or so an wobble again.... now it looks like the camber is off on the d/s tire it leans it a bit at the top anyway i can fix this in my driveway instead of having to goto a shop as i dont have the money an my fiance works tonight an there is this "big storm" coming i need the 4x4 to get her to work... any help would be appreciated

jeep has 4in rancho lift and rustys off road dual steering stabilizer 4.0 automatic

Seems like a caster issue, get it on a level surface, and measure. You will need an angle finder, and it should be between 4* and 6* If not, you need to adjust your arms. To bring it back, rotate the pinion down.

Really? :ROTFL:

Take it to an alignment shop. If you have to ask how, you shouldn't be doing it your self.
