Nissan Patrol Steering Wobble

I've had the wheels balanced and it has definately improved things.

You need to check the wheel bearings now and maybe the steering dampner.
Use a bar and try and lever the panhards a bit to see how the bushes are.
Sometimes it's not just one thing but a combination of things that add up to cause this problem.

boy do I understand your problem mate, I get the wobbles around 80+ and when I'm braking down from those speeds it's like holding onto a bull. It hasn't worried me at the moment since I'll be getting a lift soon and will cross that bridge then. Let us know how ya go mate.

I had the front wheels balanced again by a different shop who have a better system for the Nissan (called it Nissan fingers ?) and it is better again. I can only just notice the wobble know so i will check wheel bearings next.

If it's snapping the wheel out of your hands, get the panhard rods and/or bushes checked out

And jump onto the Welcome section & post up an intro mate
