Wheel Bearings and Steerin Box's
#1

The rears are only 4-6 months old. The fronts were cleaned/packed at the same time( was replacing the rotors).
My front end is doing something funny. It almost feels loose at times, but a little tight at others. I have done extensive work on the front, to get rid of a wooble(shocks, rebuilt swivel housing,stub axle,all 4 rod ends,steering stabilizer, panhard and control arm bushings)
The only thing I can think of is the bearings or steering box. I dont have much-if any- slop between the steering box input and output.
I do get a light almost snap-like sound from the drivers front when turning( any speed), which was leading me to the bearings. But if I jack my front wheel off the ground and try to move it, I have absolutley no play in any direction. BUT, when I do jack it up, I can see the tire physically move in relation to camber, prob a good 1/2 inch.
