So slight wobble in the steering wheel has shown up, what do think it is?
Alignment, tie rods, ball joints, just wondering what your toughts are, haven't had a chance to check it out.
Doesn't seem to matter if I've hit a bump or not.
Thanks

The tires seem fine no spacers, I'll have to check things out when I'm back from vacation.

i dont think ball joints will make the wobble...check all alignment parts and balance tires...

Easiest thing to start with is rotating the tires. If it goes away you know one of the tires is unbalanced. Bad tie rod ends might cause it, but I agree with Freeway that the ball joints wouldn't do it. Also a REALLY bad wheel hub could cause something like that, but you would have noticed other things before this point I would think, the signature hum of a grinding hub.
