Historically death wobble on multiple brands has been lack of caster. Yes, tightening up clearances with new parts helps as does a steering damper (which just tries to control the wobble) but, in general, solid front axles require 5 to 7 degrees of caster.

NOT in the case of the late model Cherokee

The "late model Cherokee" isn't a solid front axle.

The article was about the Wrangler JL, not the Cherokee.

I know, which is why I pointed out that his comment is irrelevant.

I just got back from a 20 mile ride in my straight axle K5 with 37" tires. 1/8" of toe-in, aligned with a tape measure, and never even a hint of death wobble.
