jimny wheel wobble help
jamesey:
wheres the best place to get the kits from for a resonable price ,
what do you think the clicking is , ive taken the freewheeling hubs off and they look ok , is there a way to grease these up at all ??
blackjim:
Are you sure that the wheel on the side you smacked hasn't been knocked out of round or have you got a gob of rust behind one bit of the wheel between it and the hub that is keeping the wheel from running true.
I fitted spacers and didn't clean up the left side hub quite as well as the right and it caused a wobble. Cleaned it up and re-fitted it and the wobble went away again.
I read a thread somewhere where to guy had aftermarket wheels on but the wheel nuts were not big enough to make the wheel self centre, could this have happened to you?
Anyway, just a couple of ideas that won't cost you to check.
Cheers
BJ

hi jamesey,
Have u slove the wobble wheel problem?
I'm facing the same problem. I've changed most of the stuffs like(trailing arms, panhard rod etc)
Don't really know what's happen....
Hope u can help....
glaggs:
Have you changed King pin bearings? This the usual cause - exagerated by big wheels and lifted suspension. Also worth changing the swivel seals as these act as a steering damper apparently? Another cause on vehicles stood for long periods, especially on tyres at low PSI can be flat spots on the tyre. This wobble usualy goes away after the first 4/5 miles.
ps. mine still wobble violently even though Ive done the above. As I'd lost all the balance weights off the front wheels I've just fitted Dyna beads and new track rod ends on the drop arm. See how it goes.
