The only reason that the stock GM setup is more stable with regards to bumpsteer is because the drag link is parallel to the spring and moves in an almost identical arc with the axle as the spring flexes.

What you said was my point all along as well. I do know a few guys that did end up with death wobble after crossover steering. Not just internet forum imaginary friends but real people I know and wheel with. Of course, they did a few other “upgrades” while doing the crossover steering swap that could be the culprit as well. As said above, many things can lead to death wobble. The xoversteer could have just been a coincidence.
