That'll do it

Mine are high tensile bolts drilled/nippled to allow greasing

Air operated grease gun makes a hell of a difference too

has anyone had the wobbles in a non leaf setup?

i get the death wobbles in mine whenever i hit a pot hole or something rough and they get extremely violent quick.

Check your bushes, has to be some play somewhere

that sounds like bump steer to me.. but whenever i have read about wobbles on a linked front end i have seen panhard bushes are usually the culprit.. dont know if that still applies to bumpsteer though

did quite a few hwy kms this morning at 100kph+ with no hint of a wobble.. I would like to think that this issue is officially SORTED.

cheers guys for your suggestions and a special thanks goes to
Ray for taking some of his valuable time to help diagnose the issue.
