    Yes, we are insane. If I told you how much we pay in rent each month for our 500 sq ft box you would think I’m insane. 

    I just went and worked up material cost of turning my daughters 484 sq ft garage into two bead rooms, bath and workout room. Less than $6k. 
    what ya paying a month?

    I seem to attract weird car issues out of left field.

    So my Jeep (4 inch lifted unlimited sport), which is basically what I think of as a real car/vehicle — stock, like an engine and dials not a computer with wheels), started doing what my shop called the “death whobble.”

    Turns out this is a thing. You can Google jeep death whobble. The steering wheel starts to shake like crazy and you have to quickly slow down sometimes to almost a complete stop for it to go away. Keeping it simple, usually it’s loose suspension components / track bar).

    Take it to the shop, some parts replaced, drive away and bam, death whobble jumps up a few miles down the road. Take it back, they put it back up and can’t find anything wrong — except my front tires (Nito Trail Grapplers 35 inch), are seriously worn. A couple new tires later, the death whobble is gone, it was just the tires, lol 

     

    I can't believe that you don't know about Death Wobble. It's been a thing for 40+ years and predominately a Jeep thing. This one isn't you man and isn't out of left field. The tolerance on Jeep steering angles are extremely tight. The tires are kind of an obvious (my 14' is doing it bad right now) but a lot of times, especially with you lifted Jeep, It comes down to Caster angle, and having the proper pitman arm to keep the drag link as flat as possible. I hope you found matching tires.. I can't as mine are discontinued. I've got to buy all 5.
