i need help cause it is getting worse
have tried a new damper and no luck
any ideas?????????????????

Are your wobbles coming under light to moderate braking? If so, try doing front brakes. Either replace rotors or have them machined. Other things to check are steering linkages, bearing adjustment, shackle bushings or front body mounts. I had severe wobbles under light braking. Replaced pads and rotors, adjusted front wheel bearings and have not had a problem since. The old MQ is as good as new which by all accounts wasn't that good.

check that the front shackles are tight.

I had wobbles that made you pull over when you hit a little bump, it was the front shackle bushes. They were totally chewed out

seeing as its not sprung over i doubt its balljoints.

big one could be front or rear U bolts are loose, tighten these. its a common offender.

the other one is the steering stabilizer thats bolted onto the front crossmember of the chassis by 2 bolts at front and 2 undernieth. the relay rods attach to this.
Fill it with grease, this will also play a massive part in ur problem.

if its under brakeing id say its u bolts........

also as mark said give shackle bushes a look too, but i doubt that they wil cause u a problem unless its spring over....

screwy

PM Red Rover,

He had the death wobbles bad on his MK, we think it was finally fiked by shimming the ball joints & front diff level again, and possibly a shim under the gearbox.

I had the same problem with my MQ a few years back & it ended up being the plies separating on the tyres. Chuck your tyres on a balancing machine & see if they have any visible runout.

Alsp had problems with the u bolts which caused very bad death wobbles , if you have disconnected the front sway bar , the u bolts stretch and often will break i had troubles on both my MQs , may not be your problem though

Had the same thing happen to me once. Turned out to be wheel ballance.
