I'm really close to giving up on this damn thing. I've been fighting death wobble since July. It is a 2009 2dr rubicon, 13,500 miles on it now. I had a JKS lift that ended up giving me 3 1/4" of lift. Flipped my drag link, raised both stock track bars. All Currie adjustable control arms except front uppers. Wheel spacers and stock rubicon tires and wheels. It never looked great lifted with stock tires so I never drove it much and just drive my work truck. It all started in July when I had my tires balanced and I rotated them. That was my first death wobble, I could tell the trackbar bolt had moved by the paint scratched away from the hole. Had the tires rebalanced and put them back to original location and then no death wobble but a sensation of my front pass side tire felt like it wanted to fall off when I hit a bump. Got so sick of it I took my lift off and put steering and track bars back to stock locations. I even had the local dealer give me a set of 16" steel wheels with the little car tires on them brand new to eliminate the problem being a tire. Yesterday I was anticipating a test drive like driving a new jeep but 2 miles down the road the f'ing thing had death wobble back, so it got worse not better. My son came over and turned the wheel for me and nothing seemed to move at all that shouldn't have. He pried up and down on the tires and there seemed to be no movement at all. So I'm down to throwing money at parts in hopes I guess the right ones or just parking it till I hit the lotto. So damn frustrated.
