death wobble wont be fixed with a track bar, but it is a good idea.

what axle are you running? sounds like a 10b or d44, the caster needs to be in the 5-8ish range positive for those. more or less than that can give you death wobble. crappy balance on the tires wont help it either.
they must be 2.5 they were marked 25 but they are real small and thin my friend says he has 6 degree shims he will give me they came off his 1 ton yota. stabilizers are on there way. is there some one that make a track bar for the truck or am I gonna be fabbing one up? I have a 10 bolt in it right now with a chevy 60 in the garage just slowly going threw it this 10 bolt was just gone through hub to hub so will probably run it till I blow it up
