I guess I was lucky and never had the "death wobble" on my Total T possibly because I moved the 351W SB Ford 4" ahead of the designed Chebbie location and changed the front - rear weight ratio. I did do a few significant changes to the steering after the first year - I dumped Mickey's cheap clevis tie rod and drag link system with the flimsy 3/4" tubing and went with a standard tie rod end and a 7/8" tie rod and drag link. It was a fair amount of work but really nicely tightened up the limp steering. The most expensive part was that @#$% $75 used for 3 holes reamer to modify the steering and pitman arms now collecting dust in my tool box.
If it's aTotal chassis and using his steering column, you might also look at the collar at the steering gear end - they do split into two pieces - I've seen this three times, including mineDave W
