Ok, here's my problem: My 1999 Blazer 4x4 LS has a wobbly left front wheel and it's been slowly but surely getting worse. It's more noticeable when I drive on concrete roads and especially when I make turns. Here's what I've already had replaced up front: Ball joints, wheel bearings, idler arm, pitman arm all in the last 4 months. I just had new tires put on it and were properly balanced, so it cannot be that.


When I had it hoisted up to put the new tires on, I gave it the 9-3 test for the tie rods and they felt fine (very slight play, but good and firm). I even did the 12-6 test for the ball joints in case they were possibly defective (the roads around here are HORRIBLE - potholes galore), but they were tight as a tiger.


I know there are a lot of other parts in the steering/suspension that could cause this. I have it scheduled to get checked out this week, but I'd like a few recommendations so they can tackle those first rather than waste time looking at things I know are ok. Please help!

 

If you properly checked the ball joints...ie: while loaded up.
Then check out the control arm bushings.

 

If your steering feels good and everything feels tight, with the exception of the wobbly wheel, I would check into your wheel hub.
