Description of the problem	Death wobble on 2005, dodge ram 2500 4x4 cummings diesel. I was traveling 50 to 60 mph and the front end started shaking violently after hitting uneven pavement. It caused me to swerve in front of a semi tractor trailer who luckily stopped in time as i drove off the side of the interstate. This is not the first time it happened. Last time, approximately 6 months ago, i bought new tires. It seemed to help for a few months but it eventually happened again; once two weeks ago and twice today. The tires have very little wear. Today it ripped out the left front stabilizer link. When i bought the new tires, i told the service technician about it and he said i needed new wheel bearings, upper and lower ball joints, tie rod ends, right front axle u-joints, and stabilizer links; adds up to over $3,000. This truck only has 150,000 miles.
