Excellent! I wonder if the dealerships just replace stabilizers because it’ll atleast make it feel like it stopped for a bit. That new stabilizer they slap on is slowly getting destroyed internally but at least it shuts us up. Wheel balancers though can fall off quite often; pot holes, smacking a curb accidentally, off roading, just normal driving, etc. Or with them still perfectly on but the wheels unbalance from wear and tear and the vibration returns but it’s too soft to notice, shimmy returns then dw. I guess Fiat would have to have 500 wheel balancing stations running 24/7 at each dealer just to handle warranty tire balancing... no frikkin’ way they’d do that lol.I had a bad shimmy from 2500 miles to about 5000 as I tried to figure it out. Brought my car to a well known mechanic (4x4 place in lake hoptcong, NJ ) that works on jeeps and he said more than likely it was tires out of balance, and he was right!!! I added the falcon 2.1 as I'm not lifiting my jeep along with the rustys track bar support and an alignment and the jeep handles great.
