« on: April 25, 2011, 08:54:28 PM »
not sure on the name of the part but on the front 4x4 axles right after the rubber boot its a cylinder about6 to 8 inches long and 3 or 4 in diameter, my ? is should it wiggle from driver side to passenger side 1/4 to 5/8 of a inch? and would that b responsible for the wobble i have @ 50 and it gets worse when i turn to the right?   any advice would be great
rims are balanced and tires are inflated properly

I think you are talking about the cv joint and shaft.  Are the boots torn?
