Default Death Wobble?

Hey group,
I am experiencing a wobble in the front end of my 86 CJ7. It is slight and
I don't feel it until I hit about 65 mph. I think it's probably a wheel
balance problem but just in case....... What causes the dreaded "Death
Wobble" commonly associated with short wheelbase 4X4's? I heard of it and
seen it on Jeeps, Broncos and IH Scouts, usually at speeds in the 40-50 mph
range, but have never heard a definitive answer on the cause or the fix. I'm
sure somebody out there has the answer.
Thanks,
Charles
