Hello
My old truck some times gets a bad dose of steering wobles at around 50 k`s hr.Changed the steering dampner and still got the same problem
.Old dampner looked like it had been there a long time.Needed changing any way.Have put the front up on stands and given the wheels and front end a going over and yet to find any thing majorly rong. 
A bit stumped at the moment.
Cheers

The steering damper wont fix the wobbles it will only damper it, I would get the wheels balanced first. Steering dampers should only be use to save your fingers being broken from the steering wheel spining out of control, not to fix or hide on road problems.
