Well it starting to look like I really have found the solution afterall since no-one has sugested anything or anyone I don't already know.
IF Your jeep has DW or shimmy Get rid of it and buy a Toyota. Very sad.
I think there is another issue here, and that is jeep drivers are to easily conned by the dealers, just look at Toyota, one little problem with the brakes and they recAlling 10000's of cars. If that was jeep you'd have people going Down hills only using 1'st low to slow down and never actually hold jeep accountable for it. And let's not forget the get out of jail free phrase for jeep -ITS A JEEP THING. I think people have got the wrong impression of this saying in that they see it as a good thing. Well i now see it as a clever way to spin a very nasty vehicle clearly put together using less than substandard components.

Geez mate, talk about bitter and twisted.
You say you've heard the same advice over and over again, BUT have you changed the balljoints, the TRE's, or do you just keep taking the JK in for wheel alignments?. the only thing adjustable on the steering in toe in/out. It's pointless doing alignment after alignment.....
If Toyota are so appealing sell the JK, buy one and move on...
As far as your comments on Toyota's recall "one little problem with the brakes". Are you serious?. are you aware that people have died because of the one little problem?.. I doubt anyone has died because of steering shimmies on the JK.
Are you also aware that any vehicle with a solid axle front end is likley to have steering shimmy?. If in doubt check out the patrol owner forum, or a Land Rover forum..
If you expect a vehicle with a ladder section chassis, solid axle front and rear, long travel multi link coil suspension to handle like a camry........ it's never gonna happen!!
