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
