Huge death wobble problems. Not the common bump-steer, but that all out, mean-ass whoopin', teeth chattering, wobble that makes it feel like the front end is breaking. What the hell is up with all the Dana 60 equiped vehicles my buddies and I own?? Why does it only happen at 35-55 mph?
I have a 1980 Chevy Crewcab dually 4x4 with 235/85R-16's, 2" suspension lift, a NEW complete King Pin repair kit done on it within 3 mo's, new tie rod & ends, new balanced tires/wheels, hubs, bearings, shocks.
His: 1986 Chevy Suburban 4x4 1 ton w/ 8inch springs, 37's, and a
Dana 60.
And several projects
I know what's wrong with his, but my dually has brand new everything in the front $1000 worth and at 35mph it scares the crap outta me everytime it's driven.
I have Dana 60's on all my project vehicles, and I'm wondering if I want to revert back to a 44 just for drivability sake?? From this site previously, I was told NOT to shim a Dana 60, well then, how do you put a big lift on, and keep the pinion outta the dirt?? Do I have to cut the ends and reweld them on?
Please Help.
(and no I won't sell my pile of dana 60's for $500)(yes, I said pile>)
