which would help prevent death wobble more? a DSS or a dual steering stabilizer set up?

and what is the difference between a BD SBS steering box stabilizer compared to a DSS steering stabilizer? which one is better?

Dss is the original we have a 97 3500 and never had the death wobble it has both dual stabilizers and a DSS
also if that don't cure it try having a shop reset the caster angle 2* more

Death wobble is rarely caused or remedied by steering stabilizers or braces.
Cause almost always comes back to the sh$%T track bar design on these trucks, or the ball joints. My 2 cents

I have always traced death wobble back to the track bar.

DSS were the origanal designers everyone else copied. you can talk to Rip at sourceautomotive.biz he is very good to talk to about DSS products. sorry earlier I should have caught in your signature. you didn't have a box stabilizer. I would vote do the stabilizer and trac bar DSS makes a adjustable one and you wont regret. its a investment but one that wont leave you on the side of the road.

i just replaced everything though balljoints, track bar, caster angle reset everything on the frontend basically, so i think im gunna order a dss bc the truck does wander and this weekend im gunna take a look at the track bar and if its bad ill get another bc its covered under warrenty. does the DSS only stop wandering at the tires or does it also fix alot of play in the steering wheel?

I've had three dodge trucks with death wobble -

93 1 ton on 39.5's
94 1/2 ton on 42's
99 3/4 ton on 42's

In all three instances I installed a generic off the shelf dual steering stabilizer kit that solved the problem after slapping it on and doing nothing else. Two skyjacker units and one Rough country if I'm not mistaken. Now they go on everything I drive, outrageously lifted or not

I had a deathwobble problem on my first CTD (1997 standard cab w/3 inch lift) but I owned it back in 1998 or 1999 so there wasn't as much info around so I installed a dual stabilizer set up from Skyjacker and that solved it. Looking back, it probably needed a track bar but I didn't know about that at the time.

Diesel 411 , I thought that DSS ment duel steering stablizer, My mistake . When I put a Duel steering stablizer on my 92 and my 93 one ton 4X4's it took care of the problem.....Sorry

so ive been shoppin around the past few days and im looking for dual stabilizers but the only ones i can find are like the skyjacker ones which are parrallel (one on top of the other). i dont like the way those look for some reason and i want to find an end to end dual setup but i dont think they make any for a 97 but i figured id ask. so does anyone know of any company that makes a dual stabilizer setup that is end to end and not one on top of the other?

I really just want a single Bilstein 5100 set-up.
I have no need for duals and never will.
