    Horrible "death wobble" after new wheels/tires?

    Could this axles being angled this hard be causing it? I figured the angel would cause premature wear but didnt know if it could be binding up or something.

    Horrible "death wobble" after new wheels/tires?

    So I discovered something that may or may not be unrelated on my way home tonight. I think I mentioned earlier that when I slammed on the brakes it seemed to get worse. Without any apparent "wobble" riding fine doin about 40mph I hit the brakes pretty hard and it nosedived towards the passenger...

    Horrible "death wobble" after new wheels/tires?

    Horrible "death wobble" after new wheels/tires?

    I've had it cranked higher than this on my old factory set up. New wheels/tires are definitely playing a big role. Very close to droop stops. I've trimmed almost as much as I can see possible.

    Horrible "death wobble" after new wheels/tires?

    I haven't been able to find longer end links. I have the energy suspension bushings.

    Horrible "death wobble" after new wheels/tires?

    The whole vehicle started to sway side to side, like out of nowhere swerve hard from side to side. Me counter-steering did almost nothing to help and I want to say hard braking even made it worse. It's just wild because it will only do it after being up at a higher speed for more than just a few...

    Horrible "death wobble" after new wheels/tires?

    I have keys turned slightly up, front is about an inch higher than the rear. Brand new 33x12.50s on 22x12s. Ever since i got the new setup on it hasn't been on the highway much. Last week after I had been going 70mph for about 15 mins, the truck basically started steering itself and I could...

    Lossen end links with leveling kit?

    So under the tahoe the other day I happened to notice that my new sway bar end link bushings are completely destroyed. It appears that adding the keys raised the sway bars just like everything else and in doing so turned the bushings into mush. I know I should replace them, but I guess not try...

    Repositioning outer tie rods?

    So a few days ago I took off the bushing end of the upper control arms to rotate the bushings around, keeping it attached at the ball joint. It was a pita to get them back in place, had to jerk the wheel assembly multiple times in the process which the outer tie rods are also attached to at the...

    Uca's w/offset bushings?

    Rent a ball joint press kit from an auto parts store. I got the control arm bushing kit and it didn't have every adapter needed. I found 2 youtube videos that were big helps. One was on removing control arms, other was on pressing the bushings out. It's 21mm bolts on the bushings. You can...

    Aftermarket cam adjusters???

    I just wanted to give some insight since I have finally figured out my issue. The offset bushings in the control arms from Moog come facing the inside of the vehicle. This is to fix negative camber (which Moog doesn't list anywhere, you will only find out when you talk to their tech support)...

    Anyone have alignment problems after leveling?

    Have a lot of positive camber after the level. Was told that the alignment cams are maxed already so I have to get something aftermarket (alignment cams to be exact, which is odd cuz all that seem to available are factory replacements) to be able to correct it. I have upper control arms with...

    Aftermarket cam adjusters???

    Yeah, I've seen those along with tons of others online. They're basically all stock replacements. I have spoken with Brad at Custom Offsets and he told me that they have never had an issue aligning a chevy with stock alignment cams. I'm coming to the conclusion that it's my "offset bushing"...

    Uca's w/offset bushings?

    So I have some ucas with offset bushings, since I was thinking these would be more adjustable etc. Turns out they are meant to correct negative camber. I have a lot of positive camber after my level I'm trying to fix. They are supposedly non serviceable (can't change the bushings). Anyone with...

    Aftermarket cam adjusters???

    So I just remembered that I recently had upper control arms with offset bushings put on. The description says they allow for an additional 2 degrees of camber. So now i'm wondering to the bushings have to be moved around or should the factory alignment cam automatically work to adjust with these?

    Aftermarket cam adjusters???

    Do you recall how off your camber was before you got them installed?

    Aftermarket cam adjusters???

    Thanks for the response. Do you remember the adjustment ability on them/have a link or part number by chance?

    Aftermarket alignment cams?

    In 3 days no one in the lifted section had a response so I figured I'd give this a try. 2001 z71 4x4 leveled with keys turned maybe halfway up to accommodate 33x12.50s. The guy trying to do my alignment showed me how the factory alignment cams were maxed out and still not letting it get even...
