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

<< < (2/6) > >>

wizard:
I have done bearing on both sides (thinking alike)
I checked the radius arm bushes etc and foung a lot of loose bolts but nothing major worn.
I tightened all the bolts but still get a wobble every now and again.
The strange thing is its not constant. It will be Ok at 50mph one miniute but whobble like hell later.

Thrasher:
Piglet is doing the same. Check your A-Frame ball-joint.....

rollazuki:
Id agree with panhard rod bushings.
double check steering box, and panhard rod mount bolts onto chassis.
You got an old camcorder?
Use a couple of ratchet type straps and fasten in onto the chassis(recording) and see if you can see movement anywhere.




Just one last thought, Have you checked the drivers side front shock absorber and bushes.........?

hobbit:
Try another set of wheels/tyres on the front?

Or any damage to the wheel, also the tyre for blebs or other abnormal markings

wizard:
Thanks for the info so far.

Thrasher

Do you thonk the a frame ball joint would show up as a wobble at the front ? Goth thing had a new one about 5 years ago..
I'll check it tonight though.

rollazuki

i took off the radius arm and panhard rods all the bushes looke OK, although i did have a few loose bolts it hasn't made any difference.

hobbit

I put on another set of front wheels.. still the same. I thought a wheel weight had come off at first and had the wheels balenced but that didnt cure it.

I thought it might be an air lock in the steering box so i will bleed it tonight and see if it makes a difference, but i haven't been near the steering box in months.

Regards
wizard
