defender wheel wobbling

(1/1)

wick:
110 defender  300 tdi . when i look out of the drivers side window when going a certain speed i can see the front wheel wobbling. when i break it starts to vibrate and judder. iv checked the wheel nuts and had the wheel balanced and checked wheel bearings. but still it wobbles any ideas what it could be.

sv130:
Try jacking that wheel up and spinning by hand, just to check if the rim is buckled  :-k

Check the drag link and track rod ends, can cause those symptoms.
