Description of the problem	Jeep is a stock 2dr 4x4 jeep wrangler x with 28500 miles on it when it first happened. This vehicle has been on a couple of dirt roads but no off road usage. While driving around a curve on loop 470 in denver at 65mph, my jeep began to aggressively "wobble" jackhammer and throw jeep from tire to tire side to side literally jumping inches off the pavement. It was jumping from front right tire to rear left tire to front left. Back and forth 1 tire was on the ground while the other three tires your could feel literally jumping off the road and had no contact with pavement. Very scary. All vehicle control lost at this time. Manual stick was actually being thrown so violently left and right i could not grab it to throw in neutral and stop the vehicle. Braking system had very little effect since all wheels but one were off the pavement. I was able to slow down to 45mph and the death wobble mysteriously stopped and i was able to regain control enough to pull of the freeway and inspect the vehicle. I discovered a little snow around the tirewell but certainly nothing that should cause this violent of a reaction. Very dangerous been driving for 23 years and never seen anything like it.
