Death wobble thread ?
Ok . I'm stupid and can't find it! I don't think it 's my prob, but, want to read up on it.
Well. Since the bushing is bad on the bottom of my steering column and my steering box is loose enough to cause a good size leak where the pitman arm is conected to the box, when I have the wheel turned (like when parking on a hill and turning the wheel to hit a curb so it doesn't roll down the hill)! I have to fix these probs first. But it would be nice to know if it can cause the wobble? Thanks guys.

And BTW! The Trac bar ,tie rods , ball jionts, axle joints, hub bearings , wheel balancing is all good. I got on the highway today and when I hit around 50mph I thought the truck was gonna shake and bake apart. I took it up to 65 or 70 and it went away.
The wobble can be caused from all of the things you have had checked....i had this problem also on my dodge and the one i have now due to oversized tires though....Alot of times whats happening if its not any of the above is...when your driving and hit a pot hole or the road is uneven or anything to push or pull the tires they want to snap back to the straight position as quickly and smoothly as they can and what happens is they will overcorrect themselfs and begin to bounce from one side of the steering range to the other causing a wobble effect...if you are running big tires need more steering stablizers or dampers whatever...and make sure the one you have on there is good ...this is the last thing i think it could be if ball joints and alignment and everything has been correct
