I have a 2008 Quad Cab with about 64,000 miles on it . I have installed a leveling kit also new steering stabilizer it has 285x65x17 Nitto Grappler tires. I use this truck for everything it has been great except for the death wobble. I just bought a travel trailer and I do not want the wobble to occur with that on my tail. I have experienced this wobble only at speeds above 65 and it sure does take the fun out of the drive when that happens. So my question is what do I do if anything to correct this is there a specific order you go by or is it trial and error. Thanks
 
The leveling kit removed positive caster unless you corrected that. More positive caster is suppose to help! SNOKING
 
I would start with alignment and tire pressure/balance, from there look for worn components like track bar and tie rod ends.

On a 3rd and 4th gen you add castor when the axle droops so if anything he has too much castor, but that wont normally contribute to DW just poor handling, 2nd gens have longer upper arms then 3rd and 4th gens, the arms also sit more parallel to each other so they do loose castor when the axle droops.
