To be perfectly honest, I bought the cheapest 35" mud tire discount tire sold! I know I am going to catch crap for this but I like to be honest so others can benefit from these threads. It's not a tire issue! It's not bump-steer! It was death wobble. The steering wheel would shake...

I adjusted the toe on the jeep to 1/8" toed out and death wobble goes away. I am feeling more confident in the tie rod end fixing it. I ordered one and it will be here Wednesday. Just to double verify I adjusted the toe in, drove it and death wobble came back. I adjusted the toe out again...

I am commenting just to tag alone buddy! I just purchased my Gladiator and am curious about the backspacing and how much people are using. I have been a wrangler guy my whole life but this is the first glad for me.
