I bought my '17 3500 DRW with 75k miles on the clock.
I always noticed the steering was a little sloppy but couldn't find anything loose or moving.
I had no real issues to cause any concern till recently.
The other day is coming home (no trailer) traveling about 55 - 60 mph, and every bump I hit sent it into the "death wobble."
With a camping trip shortly, I began investigating a bit more thoroughly. Kept focusing on the track bar.
The first pic shows a bent track bar.
The second pic shows the new track bar.
I have a video showing the track bar 'flexing,' which seems to cause the sloppy feel in the steering.
With the new bar installed, the steering is 100% more responsive.
I replaced it with the OEM.
I figured it lasted 80k, and the new one is a revised version, and I could get one NOW.
