Thanks Tardis - Any chance of some pics? Wouldn't the adjustable LCA's which allow the Castor Angle to be adjusted have the same effect?? My problem is if I reduce the CA too low, it gets nearly undrivable as I just have to touch the steering wheel and it changes direction significantly.

Additional mods to front end (LCA’s, steering stabilisers etc):IRO Adjustable Track bar, IRO QDs, Tough Dog 9 Way adjustable SS,33" muddies,double cardan front DS.
Castor angle (if known):I've got that on a computer printout somewhere...gotta' dig it out.
Toe in angle (if known):See above
What do you think fixed the DW:IRO Track Bar and the Tough Dog SS works wonders
Are you happy with this lift kit off road?Yep

Very unlikely to get DW with IFS anyway, its mainly an issue for live front axles.

WJ with 4+" lift ,king springs & bilstien shocks ,stock control arms.
Developed DW about 3mnths after lift at 40-60 km/h.
Made drop brackets to lower front control arms 3" at chassis ,death wobble gone.
See old post for whole story.

I see that the WJ trac bar has a bush both ends thus you are going to get twice the movement come springback effect when you hit a bump. I would try stiffer bushes both ends or make the bush 1 end solid.

Kevins offroad make stiffer track-bar bushes but most DW comes from lower control arms bieng on steep angle.

Wow... so are you guys saying DW is more than likely with the standard IRO 3" lift...?
Cheers,
Chumby.
