I have a 05 Wrangler X.  Dealership installed skyjacker 7000 steering stabilizer due to massive shaking at 50 mph.  Helped for a while but now it's doing it again.  Dealer says they can do no more to fix the problem.  Anyone have any advice.

What all have you had checked? Did you check the tire balance? driveshaft? tie rods? tire inflation?

It's not unheard of for dealerships to just throw parts at stuff and not fix the real problem.  


So it's not a Jeep... sue me... it's still faster!

some of the most usefull info you con find about a shaking tj is on nthdegreemobility.com how big are your tires and lift? also low air presure can contribute to shaking aka "the death wobble". the steering stabilizer is the the most common band-aid used. if you still have stock sized tires the dealer needs to get thier head.... I mean take care of the problem.  


These tires were made for muddin and they're gonna throw mud all over you.
