No usually not enough caster will cause DW and Weak ball joints and loose track bars. Too much caster will make it steer heavy and or make it wonder all over the road especially at higher speeds.Trust me, I know death wobble intimately. Been dealing with it on plenty of vehicles for over 30 years, starting with a 1975 F250 highboy. I’ve been through and checked torques. I’ll do it again but I still need to get the caster correct even if it doesnt help the DW. Google, however, does say that excessive caster can contribute to DW
Get yourself a digital angle finder and on the top of the C's get it to read about 6 degrees.I’m definitely going to move the arms up to the top holes. I started with the bottoms because they were supposed to be for 4 inches of lift and I got almost 4 inches from the Clayton 2.5 coils. I’m fighting some terrible death wobble issues and I need to get the caster where it needs to be to rule that out before I move on. Really sucks because we’re fighting DW with both of our Jeeps right now so we don’t have a vehicle we can count on
