Check Trac bar bolts at axle and frame mount, have the jeep started and have someone turn the wheel back and fourth and look under the front end, you should see something loose

I have this same problem and always wondered what it was. I never really minded it cause it wasnt hurting anything that I could tell. I'm gonna check that out today though.

Well mine had death wobble real bad and that's what happened to me. My Trac bar was loose at the axle and frame mount. Replaced it with a stock Trac bar and it fixed my problem

I reused the stock bolt for the track bar when I put the adjustable on and somehow it came loose and almost fell off a couple weeks later, now it has a grade 8 with lock washers holding it in tight
