tie rod wobble?

Hello,


Lift the front end and rotate the wheel to find if the brakes are at fault, you may need an assistant to partially press the pedal. If there is rotor warp, there will be noticeable resistance and then a free point while turning. There should also be a difference between sides if what you say is true.

The play of the tierods can then be checked by grasping the wheel at nine and three o clock positions and rocking. If there is play, but also play while rocking at the 12 and 6 o clock positions, then the wheel bearings or other parts are loose.
