I took my WC-6 1941 Dodge Command Car out tonight in support of the Marine Corps League's Toys for Tots campaign. This 83rd Mummer's Parade in Hagerstown is the largest nightime parade on the East Coast.
On the way from the Amvets Hall to the parade I got one of those "death wobbles" in the front end. It comes and goes so intermittently that I thought it had gone away for good. No such luck. I had the same problem with my 1952 Willys M38 and fixed it straightaway with a Rancho steering stabilizer kit from JC Whitney.
I'm starting here with the question. Does anyone know of a steering stabilizer kit that is available for the beast or does anyone know of a cross-reference application or some other solution. As anyone who as tried to hold the steering wheel in the middle of a death wobble, it's not a pleasant or safe experience. Thanks in advance to anyone with some solid tips. Don't forget to support Toys for Tots, it is an outstanding program.
