when i drive the front end tends to wonder from left to right. checked ball joints and rod ends they are ok..yes..lug nuts are tight..anybody know what would cause this??:icon_confused:
 
Does it wander (moves back and forth on it's own) or does it pull (goes consistently to one side, and only one side).
 
front end it tight, steering wheel have any play in it?
 
very little play in steering wheel,it feels like wheels are going to fall off
 
radius arm bushings.
 
Bad or rotted out rear spring mounts can also cause exciting steering.
 
Check your rad arm bushings first, then your rear springs.
 
Double check the drag link ball joint to pitman arm connection...mine exhibits these driving characteristics when that joint starts to go bad and gets mad play in it.
 
If one or more of your shocks is busted or missing it will cause a nasty unstable wobble when hitting bumps. Mine is doing that now. LOL
 
Is it lifted? Are your tierods flat or angled upward due to the lift?
