Heyyy all! So I'm at caloundra visiting a friend and we were bored so we decided to go up the glasshouse mountains for a 4x4, lucky my friends dad bought his twin locked frontera and was able to save me from the mud i got stuck in lol (pics coming) anyways... left the national park and as soon as i get to about 50kph the steering wheel starts wobbling.. does it to about 80kph then dies away.. comes back at around 100kph.. dont really want to drive back to samford with it like this, anyone got any ideas what it could be? i did some pretty big hills and it got pretty bumpy at some places.. lots of mud and clay etc.. im thinking it might be one of the wheel balancers came off when i got pulled out? |

you might be missing a wheel weight or even a hunk of mud stuck somewhere. i would be checking the wheel weight though |

x2. + After playing in mud you'll more than likely have some wheel balance troubles until you clean it well |

You've probably found it already but it'll just be mud in the rims. You may have to pull the wheels off to get it all out |

or if you have smashed hard enough into the side of a rut you may have bent a steering arm, loosened a wheel bearing or maybe even bent a rim...But best chance is just a wheel out of balance B4T |
