After wheeling the other day nothin serious just messing around.
I noticed my front driver wheel has a wobble to it when I'm going over
bumps and turning and there is a rattle somewhere in the front
I jacked it up and shook everything I could grab. Nothing seems loose
Any ideas?

Search wheel wobble. That will give some idea's.
You sure the wheel isnt buckled? Spin it in the air.

i had something good happen in my sierra. When i'd turn and apply the breaks, the break peddle would pulse up and down. Turns out i had stripped a few wheel nuts. Maybe check that they are all ok. I had 2 that were tight, & 3 that were stripped. So it seemed tight, until i cornered.

Vertical shackles will cause alot of other problems, not slow wheel wobbles. Have a look at your avatar.. Normal shackles will make that rear wheel stay on the ground..
May i suggest you just don't look at your wheel when off road..?
Everything to do with wobbles at speed has to do with slow speed wobbles also! Go through the list. Make sure everything is secure. It might be just play in the steering.
Does your left wheel do the same?

Seriously this is the best advice in this thread
stop looking at your tyres, look where you are going before you get called stupid for asking stupid questions

Had wheel alignment not that it has changed much. asked them to find rattle they said it was bonnet hinges being loose so tightened them rattle still there. My front brakes wobble a bit think this may be the cause tightened them and regreased them. They still hve some play in tem are they fucked or
is this normal?
