1.Do tahoe 4x4 have the Death wobble?



Recently read about the ford f250 4x4 front solid axle shaking where lose of control is inevitable this on brand newish trucks.

2.Curious if all stock solid axle 4x4s are effected by the death wobble?



Please excuse my lack of knowledge AWD & 4x4 are both new to me. But the AWD right now appears a safer vehicle than solid axle.

3. Or are stabilizers added making a solid a none issues?

It's a solid front axle thing, so dodge and ford are the most common.

Chevrolet has use independent front suspension for the past 25 years or more on the silverado/tahoe/yukon 1500/2500/3500 platform. It's a not issue because of how the suspension is designed.

do the dodge 4x4 have the death wobble also?

I've been considering a Nissan Armada will it wobble? if a SUV is listed AWD that's always front half shafts?on mid to full sized SUV always solid axle on rear?

Only solid front axle trucks death wobble...

This is a funny thread lol

Its typically a solid axle thing and it mainly has to do with the natural frequency of the suspension. If allowed to reach a natural frequency due to lack of tire balance, insufficient motion control, worn bushings, loose parts; etc "death wobble" can occur. Also why "death wobble" nearly always initiates after a big or harsh bump. Solid axles tend to do it because they have 3 links related to steering: axle to frame; box to knuckle; knuckle to knuckle. Not a whole going on there to keep that natural frequency in check

It really has nothing to do with 4wd or AWD, as 2wd Jeeps can do it. Its a suspension design induced phenomenon. Has absolutely NOTHING to do with the rear suspension, either. But to answer your question; you pretty much have to buy a GM SUV to get a solid rear. The Nissans and Fords are all IRS.

The reason IFS trucks dont suffer from it is we have a lot more linkage, more bushings, more joints: all working to damp that natural frequency to a point that it basically can never occur under driving conditions we use the vehicle in

That said, I'd be surprised if you understood any of that based on the posts youve made in this thread
