Got all the way home with no issues...But, when I went to scouts tonight, I had a death wobble twice on the way, three times on the way home. Only seems to do it at low speeds, 25 mph or less.
I know the spring bushings are marginal, at best, so I suspect that is the problem. I ordered a new set, and I will put it on the lift this week and take a look.
I still need to rebuild the front axle also, but I was going to wait until I get the longs first.
I'll let you know what I find.
 
Well, got the 62 on the lift this morning...
The u-bolts on the left side were loose (very loose) and one nut was missing.
The right side was almost tight.
Seems I didn't re-check them after I put the shims in.
Also found a bad tie rod end on the right side.
I got the u-bolts fixed, but I'm going to have to order the tie rods.
I'll go ahead and swap the tires, though.
 
I never do the beach or the boat on a holiday weekend.
Just not worth the headache.
 
Sounds good! Laney made her first trip to the ocean today with lots of sunscreen! Traffic was horrible! What was her mama thinkin! I tried to tell her!
Yeah did she even notice ? At that age it's hard to tell. Oh Scott this is my first post with the new smart phone. Seems strange.
 
Tell me about it. I picked one up myself last week.
