So I just finished cutting and re-welding my C's for caster. I HAD to do it due to the wandering. It was all over the road after finishing the 5.5" lift and trying to run stock C bushings(to save the driveshaft). SO before I took it apart I measured 9 degrees of NEGATIVE castor with my angle finder. Way to far negative! To help my driveshaft issue I figured I would install 4 degree C bushings backward to tilt my pinion up figuring I was going to rotate the C's anyway to get whatever caster I wanted. Anyway, I ended up getting it to about 8 degrees of POSITIVE caster. Before I rotated the C's it drove fine except for the wandering. NOW it starts the DEATH WOBBLE at 25 to 45 m.p.h. It is so severe that I have to lock up the brakes to stop it. I have not been able to get over 45 to see what happens. It is by far the worst I have ever felt in a vehicle and I work on j**ps for a living. Is my 8 degrees of caster causing this??? I never had a death wobble before going to positive caster. I am pretty sure it is I just want some opinions before I tear it all apart again.
