Re: wobbling in the front

that's kindda vague

if it's suspension related i would say something is broke or VERY worn out.

be a little more specific if you can

What ya have to do is jack the car up and grab the tire and wooble it yourself. If a friend is available he could look around under there to see where the slop is at. Could be a # of things.

Re: wobbling in the front

bushings, ball joints, shocks, tire out of balance, bent wheel, low air pressure, separating tire. That should get you started.

Is it speed related? Does it ever smooth out or just get worse?

Hey guys

thanks for the reply this morning i looked under the car itself. You should have seen the tire. The back end of it had a huge offset from the end closest to the curb.
