A few months ago I experienced death wobble in my 01 Cummins 4wd at 60 mph, and it was violent and scary. It was the very first time I've personally had it happen to me.
I know my shocks look like older OEM style shocks, so I just got in a new set of Bilstein 5100 shocks to put on it, and I got a new set of adjustable control arms so I can adjust them to get some positive caster in the front end. My ball joints were replaced by the previous owner who I got the truck from, and they still are tight with no play in them.
After I install the new shocks, control arms, new heater and evaporator cores, I'll get an alignment done on it.
Look for anything with looseness... Shocks - remove and check for gas charge and suppression. Weak shocks can allow the the axle to bounce. Tie Rod Ends - look for any loose tie rod ends. Ball join
