Hi, my jimny has got a horrible rattle at about 50mph exactly like the video below. Hope someone can shed some light on what's going on :( thanks Alex.

Not death wobble per se, because you wouldn't be able to drive it like that because the wobble would force you to slow down a lot or stop the truck completely.

But something weird is going on there, and I wouldn't drive it like that until you find the cause and fix it! Have you inspected the front axle for any play in the rod ends, bushings(panhard and trailing arms) and king pins and wheel bearings?
