OK. I drive an 08 jku with 157k miles on it. I am having issues with what I think is the ball joints or wheel bearing. I am having trouble with flightiness, and at only certain speeds I get a wobble. Not death wobble. Mire of like a vibration. Tires are wearing unevenly and now I have a squeaking noise anytime I'm driving on somewhat rough roads. So far I have intstalled
*skyjacker 2.5 inch coil spring lift with rear trackbar bracket (welded on)
*aev drop control arm brackets
*teraflex monster front adjustable trackbar
*skyjacker quick disconnect front swaybar links
*skyjacker steering stabilizer.
*and I'm running 35s with black rock rims.
I'm seriously at a loss. The wheels have no play in them when its off the ground. Losing my mind!

 

wearing unevenly how? on the inside or outside of the tire is it even wear or spotty like a balance issue?
1 tire or all of them? front or back?

 

With a 157K, I'd check the ball joints. That's a lot of miles for stockers.

 

Its literally the first inch and a half on the inside of the tread drivers side front tire. Nowhere else. I work at a tire shop and not even two on my day off I popped all tires off (pain in the ass and back-breaking) haha. and rebalanced them to make sure. Rotated them and now the tire that was moved to that position is already worn.

 

X2 on this...

 

I figured as Much on the ball joints. Could they cause the squeaking? I'm just confused because when I shake the tires down they have no play

 

You work at a tire shop and taking 4 tires off was a pain in the ass???

Have you jacked it up and pried up on the bottom of the tires and was there any play in the ball joints?

 

When I pulled the tires off I had three wheel studs that were stripped. So yeah. Major pain in the ass. Haha. Plus, those suckers are heavy. Didn't try prying the bottom of the tire up. Oops

 

Give it a try. Put a bar under them and pry up slowly and watch the joints and see if you get any play. What speed do you notice the vibration or wobble at? Does it go away if you increase the speed past a certain point?

 

Ill give it a shot. Thanks! Its usually around 50-55. But I'm noticing its only after I turn a certain direction. Turn one way then go straight and it shakes. Turn the other way then go straight and no issues.
