Description of the problem	I bought the vehicle used with 16,500 miles on it. A week after i was accelerating on to the interstate when i hit approximately 50 mph the jeep started to shake violently. I had to come to an almost complete stop on the interstate to get it to stop. I first thought it was the tires but it had a brand new set on it. So i had them micro balanced. It didn't do again for about 2 weeks until i tried to get on the interstate again at 50 mph. I took it to jeep because it was still under warrant and was told because it had one size larger tires it was not covered under warranty. At 19500 miles i replaced 4 ball joints, complete heavy duty drag link system with new tie rod ends, new hd track bar, 4 new shocks, new front springs, hd steering damper, tires micro balanced, wheel alignment that lasted about two months before it did it again. I now have 31,000 miles on it and still fighting the death wobble. I have spent over a 1000 dollars to try and fix this. I believe that should be looked into because someone will get killed. I think it's only a matter of time.
