1999 Base - Play in Front Wheel
Passenger Front...the wheel has a small amount of play in it when moving it from side to side. I did not feel any play up and down but I did not want to put my hand under the wheel as I was only using a jack.
Could this be an outer tie rod, hub, ball joint...any thoughts?...(have been trying to track down a slight vibration).

Do what is called a dry park test. With the car on the ground, have someone move the steering wheel back and forth and watch the tie rod end for any play.

Re: 1999 Base - Play in Front Wheel
Mechanic today said it was the outer tie rod...will follow-up on this this.
I'm wondering if this "play" could contribute to a slight pulsing felt in the tire and steering wheel when taking a left turn at slower speeds...like turning a corner after being stopped. Mechanic did not think so, thought it might be an axle but was not bad enough to worry about yet. I will probably follow up with an outer tie rod on the right (left outer was done recently) and have the alignment checked. Last edited by bigsky; 09-26-2007 at 01:12 AM.
