I have been experiencing Death Wobble sometimes when I hit a bump at highway speed. I had the entire front end rebuilt, Front end alignment and the tires rotated. The tires are less than a yr old and a lot of tread. Nothing helps.

Truck goes into a death wobble when traveling at approximately 65mph and hitting a bump in the roadway. Have had aftermarket steering stabilizer shocks, installed, new shocks and new tires, and new sleeve in steering shaft. This is a stock vehicle with no lift kit or other suspension modifications. Used basically to tow an RV.

Manifestation of 'dodge death wobble'. Violent shaking of front end on the interstate. I had to bring the truck to a halt to stop it.
