Default 2006 Dodge Ram 2500

I’ve got a 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 I was having issues with the front suspension shaking violently after hitting a bump on the interstate, I was told it was ball joints and tie rod ends so I had them replaced with Moog parts don’t know where else to look for problems please help

Rotate the tires, make sure it is actually a suspension problem.

Jack up the front, inspect EVERYTHING.

Mine had the same issue. 2006 Mega Cab. It’s called Death wobble, and it’s scary as hell. It’s probably a combination of things. I would have all your components, shocks, ball joints, tie rod ends, and connecting links checked. After replacing almost every component in mine, which were bad anyway, I still had it. Turned out it was the steering damper. No problems since, but I still grip the wheel very tightly and cringe whenever I hit a bump at highway speed!!
