Before you go and throw a lot of money at the front end chasing ghosts, use the search function and read up on the billions and billions of threads on the subject here. As for me, I completely rebuilt the front end on my 91 including new springs, bushings, and the forward left spring hanger. Didn't help and there was nothing left to replace on the front end. So were was my death wobble coming from? The rear brakes were out of adjustment. Once I got them correctly adjusted the wobble went away. When it comes back, I readjust my rear brakes. Weird, huh. But I had 2 1st gens doing the same thing. The point? Check out everything you can before wasting a lot of unnecessary time and money. What I haven't been able to solve is what I call the basket ball bounce. Only occurs at low speeds, slowing down.
RIP 91.5 W250 5 speed. The great experiment.
