Default Re: 1930 Coupe front end shimmy

Yes, that front axle is welded up mess, so replace if a good one can be found. I heard one time time, that to check if a front axle is bent, to remove the spring perches and install straight rods a couple feet long that fit the perch holes and see if they line up from the side. If not, the axle is bent. You said that you adjusted the steering box. Often that is the cause of death wobble. And king pins and all the rest of the front assembly is reasonably tight. I would go with Mulletwagon's advise and check the balance of the front wheels.
