Hi DJ,

All above are very good suggestions. One thing though, about your death wobble - it is crucially important to fix this for safe driving.
Put the front axle of the car up on jack-stands. Get your Grandad to grab the front wheels and wiggle them back and forth. You get underneath the car and find out where the lost motion in the steering system is located while your grandad is simulating the death wobble. I'll bet you a nickle that the steering box is loose on the frame... Good Luck and Happy Motoring!
