Re: A case of death wobble today
Hey A*****e, he had a tire well out of balance, he has well worn
tires, he has way too much toe in for 35" tires (not the 1/8" you like for **32***" tires and I AGREE that 1/8" is good for 32's) and all you say is "Replace the stabilzer" All I said is look for the real problem BEFORE you change the stabilzer" If you had your way, he would not have looked for root causes. If you were the mechanic that sent him on his way with a "fix" you would get to defend yourself in court.

Re: A case of death wobble today
Well, if you knew your head from the other end, you would note
that the second picture does NOT have stock springs, too much arch. If you look at the first picture, you will note that the angle does not show the back end of the spring where you typically get bending due to spring wrapup. Now what point were your trying to make? Please be clear in showing ALL of us exactly what what happens when you abuse a spring and what effect it has on the caster? Not so cheers.

Re: A case of death wobble today
What was that some sort of personal attack?
Try and imagine a really long shackle, with that leverage it'll bent the spring backwards, might even gain some castor.
