Wheel play
#11
Are tie rods related to the 'death wobble'? I've been trying to fix that for over a year, and still cant figure out whats causing it! I'm certain I need new wheel bearings up front btw. However, I don't think bearings would cause the quick loss of steering when hitting a bump above 30+mph....
I just realized that I dont' have the 'death wobble', as I saw a video of someone having it on youtube....that is certainly not what I'm experiencing! My issue is, when driving about 30+mph, if the wheel is perfectly straight going over a bump (more noticable on bridges) nothing happens, but if the wheel is slightly turned either way, then when hitting that bump, or seam in the road, the wheel just takes off in that slightly turned direction. If you are not quick to catch it then the truck veers off in that direction! I've been looking for steering stabilizer for a 2wd, but they don't seem to make on for an 08 2500....
