Re: weird wheel wobble- help needed |

ok so i diagnosed half the problem- credit goes to supafatto for the other half- radial pull.
i never heard about it but read up on it- i need to flip the front drivers tyre on the rim, it was pulling to the left, swapped front tyres around- pulls to the right. so not delaminating tyre- just a badly wound one from new (thinking about it sounds like what my corolla had- and i traded thet pos in cause supension specialits said was wrongly drilled mounting holes for the drivers side suspension strut- 3 sets of rims and tyres showed the same symptoms so not likely radial pull).
The other issue is as i predicted- passenger side wheel bearings- the usual shake the wheel didnt reveal it, but when on axle stand, if i pulled on the bottom of the wheel i could then get vertical shake in it, not horizontal shake as per usual in worn bearings (i have found anyway)- and only when the bottom edge of bearing pulled out of line slightly from the top. Expalins why its a variable wobble thet comes and goes based on camber and gradiant of roads.
Will flip tyre and replace bearings next week and see.
thanks Nick.
