Re: 2004TJ front end wobble
It makes sense that without following the tire rotation schedule, the
tire would start this, wear on the shocks and ultimately the steering
damper until becoming obvious. And yes, the FSM does say do a tire
rotation at every oil change. But not in the schedules, instead in the
description, under "At each oil change" which is why I missed it. Not
sure I would have believed it without experiencing the result in any
case.
However, from now on I certainly will be.

Hi Doug,
Nothing that I can think, but treat it like a truck, and know all
truckers or pilots are required by law to walk around their rigs looking
for anything out of the ordinary. Do that and you will notice your
cupping, rust from dry joints, oil from leaking seals, before they
become catastrophic.
