death wobble?!
I have ran 33-35" tires on these trucks for years up and down gravel roads till the suspension is wore out and never experienced anything close to death wobble.
Something must be seriously wrong with the steering/suspension.

I remember the first time my jeep death wobbled, it was crazy! I thought I actually lost a wheel! Lol

You should probably check your pitman arm and tie rods to be sure they are tight.
