Is there a difference between a Death Wobble and wandering around the traffic lane? (wandering being like not having good steering control, as if blown by the wind)
I've posted some stuff before about this issue, but I'm confused about what, if any, differences there are.
On a side note, should ball joints be replaced on both sides if you are replacing them?
I have an RE 4.5" super-flex kit, installed a Currie tie-rod and drag bace, replaced the right front hub assembly, right upper/lower ball joints, right axle u-joint, right caliper, and even the sway bar brushings. Tires rotated and allignment has been completed. Steering is horrible at all speeds.
Had a mechanic check out the ball joints I installed. He said I did not get them seated fully, he seated them. Steering was good for a bit, now it is back to bad. No unusual noises from drivetrain or axles. I'm going on two months trouble shooting this and now my wife won't ride with me.
Guidance would be appreciated. And if anyone knows any good shops in the DC/Northern Virginia/Maryland area that specialize in our modified jeeps? Seems like normal mechanics are lost on these.
