Hi I wanted pick y’all’s brains because you guys have the experience. I have Synergy track bar and steering kit on my 3rd Gen 4x4 with Carli ball joints. I’m happy with all of that.



I just bought a 2WD 12 valve dually. Yesterday we were going to take the new truck out on a country drive. A mile down the road I hit a pothole and all hell broke loose with dreaded THE DEATH WOBBLE!!.… today I called to get the track bar conversion kit and heavy duty steering kit but they said that stuff was only for the 4x4.



Am I stuck just going with stock style replacement parts? Is it feasable to just replace the bushings and hardware? Have any of you guys replaced your 4x2 front end and steering with any heavy duty or upgraded parts you recommend?

Is this an IFS 2wd? Or os it the cab& chassis with the beam axle?

The 2wd beam axle can use all the 4wd upgrades. My preference is for stock type HD steering linkage, steering brace, stock trac bar (with a lukes link) and a better steering box (delphi 680 or the 6bolt).

If its IFS, then I'm not sure. You probably have worn out parts to renew.

Yes it is the Cab and chassis with the hollow round straight axle. If you can easily put together part numbers that would be great! I also need to replace my Tie Rod end and steering Tie

My buddy ran the 98-99 HD steering on his '95 for about a decade, with Lukes Links. (Stock trac bar too.) Lasted so well it migrated one truck to another. (4" lift 35's, lockers, freespin). Finally wore out and i believe it is stock 2009 steering he put in now.
