Since buying tires and having the right bearing replaced I have gotten occasional wobble or shimmy in the steering wheel. Can be intense. It happens when road is veering to the right and long turns. It does not happen often not even in the example above and does not happen when I am turning right. I know it has also happened when I have hit several bumps in succession. I thought it was a bad tire because I did have this thing happen a long time ago and when changed tire it was gone. Took it to shop just looked at tire and said it does not have as obvious bulge but I should have tested. I took it to Mr. P a quick tire changing place and he said he thought is was that the tires that I have Cooper Discoverer a t / 3 are too aggressive for my truck and he personally would not have sold them to me. Could bearing be bad? Tire? The shop that put on tires and fixed bearing was a nightmare to deal with. Thanks for any ideas/ help.

 

Search here for "death wobble" and you'll find everything you meed. Could be swivel preload, TRE's, bushings, or a combination of the three.

 

x2 there is a whole list of thing that can cause your death wobble, you just have to cross them off your list as you go.

 

I would get the "death wobble" every once in a while when braking. Mine ended up being the lower control arms and tie rod ends.
