While eating my breakfast I read you first post and all the replys trying to find out what year car your talking about, finally at the bottom of the page you come up with it, 34 Ford. I think you'll find those spring loaded tie rod ends are not tightened up enough. I tighten the ends right up and then back off about one turn. I had that same problem when I built my Model A 10yr's ago, first test run with all new parts, king pins ect. I tightened up tie rod and drag link ends never had that death wobble again. Walt
