In the market for our first Jeep and have seen a lot of the posts related to the death wobble and I couldn't help but wonder for those that have experienced the DW if it came after a DIY lift (or other work) OR was it something you had done at a shop?
While I do not anticipate on doing anything significant, if at all, I am starting to get concerned about spending a lot of money on a Jeep only to have an issue like the DW - especially if my wife were to be driving it. We dont plan on doing any off roading (most likely) but could see putting larger tires on it or leveling.
Just curious how overstated it may be or if there is a difference between those that DIY vs taking it to a customs shop? BTW, this is not intended to bash any DIY guys....I am one of those and often spend more money fixing what I did rather than just taking it somewhere that has more experience than I do....its the principal! :happyyes:
