I’ve been chasing down some movement/noise coming from my front L front wheel/suspension. best I can describe is a harsh vibration all the way up the steering column when hitting even small pot holes. And also a steady wobble around 70mph. If I hit a pothole on the highway on that side, it shakes the steering wheel pretty violently. It feels like something is loose in the suspension but I’ve been under it and over it multiple times and mechanics have too with no luck finding anything loose. Here’s what I’ve fixed or replaced so far:
- Wheels and tires balanced and rotated.
- lower ball joint
- outer tie rods
- alignment
- asked mechanic to do inner tie rods but he said there was no play so no need but still couldn’t pin point my problem. He thought it was something in the steering column but nothing happens when I hit a pothole on the R front tire and zero vibrations from that side.

I doubt it but could this be a wheel bearing even without any droning? I’m at a loss and tired of trying things.

Any input greatly appreciated.

 

Probably a bad strut or lower control arm bushing.
