hey guys i was driving my xj today (2 inch lift with 31's) and hit a bump going about 35/40 and my whole front end started violently shaking back and forth, it sounded like my wheel was going to fall off this has never happened in the 8 weeks ive had my lift on. and now every time i hit a bump going that speed i get that wobble wtf. please tell me how to cure it thanks

 

First off search death wobble. Please search before you post, keeps the clutter down. Very common XJ issue.

 

Yes, as Renixbeast said... Death Wobble. Pleanty of info all over the forums....

 

i did that and i found only about 2 posts all the rest were just bullshet i just want a few suggestions

 

Anything, I mean ANYTHING in the front end can cause it. Worn bushings, bad tie rods, bad ball joints, worn steering stabilizer, etc.

There are more than two threads here on Death Wobble. Search a bit more.

 

Here is a link to a site called kevinsoffroad it has some stuff that might help.

I had it on two of my XJ's. In both cases it was bent belts in the steel belted tires. Once replaced the problems were gone.... But that was my case.... You should check all suspension and steering components too.

 

i had to get new tires new ball joints and tie rod ends. did all that and got an alignment now she is perfect

 

i think im gunna get a new trac bar and control arm bushings. my tires are pretty new

 

Best to double check each thing, one at a time to rule out possible problems... No need to spend unessesary money.....

 

Check your tie rods. Thats what caused mine a couple weeks ago. I couldnt get about 30 and just the left tie rod was bad.

 

not too sound really dumb but how much does a tie rod run

 

Call the parts store in your area.

 

AutoZone, it was 20 bucks for a cheap one

 

How long did that call take?
