Front end wobble
 
Just wondering what to check for my cars handling. It shakes pretty bad on the freeway, kinda like a bucket of bolts. The steering wheel shakes and the whole car rattles. I have been told to inspect my wheel berings, but I am looking for other possible causes as well.
TIA,
-Mike

1. Bent rim

2. Out of round tire(s) (flat spotted or old and coming apart)

3. Out of balance tire/rim assy

4. Severly worn tie rod ends

5. Bad or broken shock

Just a few more things to look at.

1. Ball joints
2. Missing / loose suspension bolts
3. Loose wheel bearings

Worth fixing as soon as possible, could lead to bigger problems
