Wheel wobble #2 HELP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(1/6) > >>

wizard:
Its not  often i ask for help but know i am totally stumped.

sometimes, not always i get a very bad vibration from the front drivers side wheel.
I have done the following.

1] Changed the wheel/tyre
2] Replaced wheel bearings - old ones were OK
3] replaced swivel hub brearings- old ones were OK
4] replaced steering damper
5] checked all the track rod ends all seem to be OK

I have added and removed shims from the swivel bearings but there was no difference.
tonight as a last ditch effort i am going to run her without the front propshaft on(grasping at straws now)

Any advice would be greatly accepted.

regards
wizard :twisted:

H:
cv joint??? have you tried taking it out and seeing if it feels notchy, rather than swiveling smoothly.

rollazuki:
You got a lift kit on there............?

wizard:
I checked the CV when i replaced the bearings and it looked and felt OK.
I have had a 3 inch lift on for the past 3 years without any problems.
this wobble only started within the last 5 weeks.
The last thing i have done is replace the front prop UJ's about a week later i had this wobble. :twisted:

Budgie:
Panhard rod / radius arm bushes?  :?

Have you done the swivle pin bearings & wheel bearings on both sides or just the drivers? May be worth checking the passenger side just in case.  :wink:
