Thank you for the help. This saga taught me not all "PO repairs" are correct/complete.

I went back thru all posts.

I'm particularly curious about post #3 "Don't overlook the leaf spring pins and shackles..." There is significant side-to-side movement when pushing on the front end. This is visible in the video. PO stated the springs were sandblasted and shackles are new. What do I look for in spring eye or shackle bushings for wear or trouble?

Like the wise man said: Trust, but verify!"

Suggest that you avoid the forum police.........it's time to open a new topic for that question JeepDaddy. Your original "Death Wobble" problem is solved.

And you know the drill now, research the TM's, then search the forums for previous posts that expose learning on that subject...then ask good specific questions and get good specific answers.
Yes, easier said than done.

Good luck!
