ford death wobble ?????????
 
driving my buddys 7.3 last night i got real bad death wobble like my dodge used to do what the heck is it its a real nice truck with duel stabillizer in the front

How fast were you going? I'd start by checking all the bushing and the stabilizers themselves to see if they're good, and check the alignment too

Put the front axle up on jackstands and grab ahold of the tires and try to wobble them. It may be bearings.

Id deff. say check the bushings, but yes put it on jack stands and wiggle and shimmy that B*tch around until you find the weak link
