HELP NEEDED URGENTLY , Wheel wobble,

<< < (2/3) > >>

MuddyMike:
My money (if I were a gambling man) would go on swivel pin bearing pre-load.

Disco-andy:
Iv been trough this numerous time and it nearly always turns out to the weel bareings, if you jack each frount wheel and see if there is any play verticly that will tell if it is.  You may just get away with tighting them, but changing them is not a hard job ether.

electricbluebadger:
When you jack it up Wheel bearings will show up as vertical and horizontal play whereas if its kingpins there will be vertical play only.

Cheers Steve

Range Rover Blues:
It's worth remembering that the brake calliper will surpress movement in the wheel bearing so check that the pads are well clear before checking, or be prepared to pull hard on the wheel.

Anyway, we'll be at the pub later if you want to join us Jim, bring the patient along too so we can have a look.

bilge rat:
think i'd check swivell pre load first, then go from there. alan.....
