    Your one wheel nut could be loose. Or your wheel bearings could be wore out. Jack up the front end and move the wheels from side to side and all around and see if there is any play.

    maybe a bent rim? check for a loose tie rod end @ the base of the steering stem also.

    i have the same problem. but i know what caused my wobble. i hit a huge trench about 4 foot deep while running pretty much wide open in 5th. warped front left rim and almost killed me. if its your rim thats warped it shouldn't be too hard to figure out

    Yep for sure, your rim is most likely bent. Take a close look and you may just see a bend or something.

    Have you put any type of slime in your tire? If you did this is the problem slime tends to vibrate at high speeds. The only cure is to take it out or you will ruin your bearings



    hope this helps

    Yep, I have the same problem on mine.
    When you get a new set buy Dougals with the OMF reinforcement rings welded in, those will hold up to anything.
