No hurry just got some wobble in my left wheel, going riding Sunday but not a big one and it's close to home so not worried about breaking.

bad bearings or a blown front shock, will give you the wobble

88+ Tony

Grk wheel bearings and a arm bearings are all new, shock doesn't seem blown. I did notice when reassembling my left spindle where the hub slides on was bent in two places and I'm pretty sure the threads that hold the spindle on the lower ball joint are shot.

yeah anything worn on the front end will give you a shake or wobble, even a bent rim

Yeah it's not that bad of a wobble in the steering but my buddies I was riding with in Kentucky said my left front tire looked like it was going positive to negative camber while riding down the road at good speed.

Yikes man.... When a a arm ball joint fails it's an immediate face plant sometimes followed by a yard sale!
