No death wobble on my 07 but my 03 did, then I changed the stearing stabilizer shock and it cleared up

You're gonna get a lot of comments here from tires to level kits to the moon phase causing DW. As I'm currently dealing with it I'd say it's a combination of all the components in the steering system in this truck. I just installed a Defiant stabilizer and it greatly reduced my wobble. Did it cure it??? No. It’s just a step to the final solution.

If I replaced the tires first it may have cured the symptom, but greatly shortened the life of my $1300 investment in tires. Next on the plate tomorrow will be ball joints and then hopefully new track bar bushings by Saturday. What I want is my old tire to not wobble. Once that happens I know my new tires will last. And that’s all I have to say about that.

When you lift the front end, it's a good idea to swap out the stock trackbar bushings for zero-deflection bushings
