more and more often now when i near 45-50 mph my front end starts shaking violently. dw? i can barely steer and braking, of course, only makes it worse. its goten to wear i can tell when its coming and if i let off the gas it ceases. i put a new ome stabilizer on today and it stiffened up my steering but definitely didn't fix the problem and i have no clue where to look.

track bar bushings are often the cause. also check for worn out tie rod ends and control arm bushings.
good luck

If it happens all the time it aint DW.....and with DW it usually stops when you brake.....I would check for a loose of bad track bar....
what have you done already to fix the situation?

in the process of ordering a new trackbar from RE. i took it to the shop and had them check out my linkage and they "said" it all is fine. thats it, haven't had any time. thought about my trackbar, which is a crustys and it wouldn't surprise me.

does anyone know if the RE hd trackbar is compatible with rustys hd mount? they say it requires their certain mount but i don't want to spend more than i have to.

dynamic balance
high quality, "best they ever did" balance
"you don't care if there are weights on the outside of the wheels" balance
or as Eagle would say "Have your tires balanced"
