Then you have the alignment off or have 'perfect' tires and components
with no wear yet.
Driving like that is suicide up here in slush country, we get the death
wobble from slush or snow sticking to rims and that is with 'good'
stabilizers.

Tom,
That's because you welded the new spring perches in at least five
degrees castor. Now many steering boxes have you replaced, or are you
poser? Of course, you know all the new Daimler four wheel drives
products use a damper.

Well I'll have to take it on faith from the alignment shop that it was done
properly. How much wear the components have is hard to say. Everything is
still tight with no slop so I guess you could say the wear is minimal.
Then again, if you've got big tires and wobble problems along with a bunch
of sloppy worn out front end components, it's hardly fair to call it a
tire/stabilizer problem.
All I can tell you is my experience. I haven't had a stabilizer for a
couple years now and never missed it when it came off.
