Well, time for another update. Took the Jeep out for a drive Saturday. DW was still poking fun at me. Particularly at the freeway expansion joints that I could make do it every time. One of the guys at my Jeep club offered me his services to help diagnose the issue. I figured, "What else haven't...

More like exactly what you said.............. I'll update this weekend and let you know.

I do stand corrected, the 'initiator' is most definetly the bump or crack. Just like your failed shock, I feel that the tires aren't helping to prevent the reaction, this is the reason that a lower air pressure is often run to help dampen the reaction to the crack or bump. So.....OK. Got this...

Well said. I really think that the initiator is the tires. The rest comes down to the assembled components ability to compensate on those planes, which is what a stabilizer does if above or below it is rigid. The thought is, that since I've tried two different stabilizers, the Roadmaster Exact...

So......I've conversed with several of my old wheeling buddies at the Arizona Virtual Jeep Club. I sent out a bunch of pictures and we did our online analysis. 99% of the time DW can be attributed to the Track Bar. These guys have the experience to prove it. The stock tires don't help, but...

Would be nice, but no. It won't hurt to upgrade the tires anyway.

I'm OK with wherever.....Looks like chandler is winning. My vote.

I'm thinking that may be my next step if tires don't do the trick.

Here's my old baby! She was fun!

I hear ya............

Expertise???? Cr*p!! I' just an old fart that learns something new everytime I go out! I'm fighting though issues with this Jeep, see the thread below: https://www.jeepgladiatorforum.com/forum/threads/new-gladiator-dw-and-a-possible-solution.54855/page-2#post-966577 Getting together for some...

Another update. Loosened and retorqued the UCA's after bouncing the front end up and down quite a bit. Same result. I have a perfect spot on the freeway by my house to test............Promptly went into DW. Checked for damage to the ball joints and other by jacking up each side after and giving...

Signing in from Gilbert, by Higley and Williams Field. Am a Lifetime Member of the AZVJC, did alot of wheeling with those guys through the 2010's with my old JK. The forum for the group has been down for a while, but the FB group is there.

artsifrtsi The more I'm thinking, the clearer it gets! I have not touched the UCA's! The bushings are definitely in a binding position after 2-1/2" lift. I'll try that and report back. It never occured to me because with my old JK, I lifted 3" and put new LCA's on. Never touched the uppers and...

Lowers were done with the Jeep on the ground. Good point! Uppers were not! I should try that. That's 4 springs working against the lift! BTY, nice alignment setup

Hi all! Another update and looking for some additional advice. Everything above is true, but living in AZ, as the weather heats up tire pressure rises. Allowing the tires to run at the 36 psi that the factory calls for produces Death Wobble. So including the above parts I've added: TeraFlex 2.5...

I had wander issues with my 2020 when I bought it used this past January. Chalked it up to a Jeep Thing. Did the steering gear recall then put a Rough Country levling kit on with the synergy Track Bar. Then I had not only wander but Death Wobble at 55+mph. I then added the Mopar factory 2" lift...

It is now modified. You're absolutely right. I'm glad you've had no issues. My wife was kinda ticked off that I bought this in the first place, then when I was driving her home from the airport and DW reared it's head, she was like "What the Hell did you do?"

Funny........Did that too....

I did check that. Rotated tires too. I'm just happy that some of you do not have the issues that I had. Could have been a defective part. The weak link was definitely in either the tie rod or drag link.
