ok so in my truck i have been getting the dreaded death wobble.. its not constant it only after certain bumps and only last till i slow down more. not all bumps just some. i have no idea were to start looking to fix this problem any help would be appreciated
Tie-Rod ends. the wobble happens because the tie rod looses its stiffness, allowing any/almost all bumps to flirt w/ the steering. it should be most noticeable when moving through a turn, such as a road/hwy curve, and hitting a bump, the entire truck would feel like it just "juked" the road.
Its happened more going straight but has a few times turning. So what do I need to do just tighten the tie rods
Idler arm will also cause this if your tie rods are good. Also good shocks will help reduce the wobble.
^^^ I forgot about the idler arm on the 97-03's. and yea, you can adjust the tie rod ends unless they have a grease valve (most dont) in which case you'll need to just replace.
They are brand new tierods probobly have 3 k or so miles we put them on when we did the lift same with shocks.. what do I need to do to the idler arm
