I took the Bronc on a shake down run. Refer to my build page.
I've gotten rid of the Death Wobble. I do not have the violent shaking anymore. I do get a bump induced shimmy though. Especially on those old paved bumpy county roads. The Front end is TIGHT. Remember everything is new and solid.
I've taken it to the alignment shop and the toe in is dialed in and my caster/castor is right at 9 degrees. I'm running 37s with beads inside for balancing. I'm wondering if I need to either take out some castor or install a steering dampener or both. Has anyone else had this type of issue. It feels like a shimmy you get when your steering is out of alignment but it is initiated by certain bumps in the road that causes everything to get out of balance so to speak. For the most part it would settle itself back into sync but a couple times I had to tap the breaks to break the ocilation. ANy ideas?
Update. Just got off phone with WH and they suspect what I suspected. Possibly too much castor. I'm going to reverse some of the castor with
C-Bush and see what happens. Any other thoughts, I'm open.
