    I'll have to do some more research as I think the panhard bushes are fine considering the lift is only 8000kms old.
    That's not on. That is poor quality work.
    First.
    Fix what is already known to be wrong. Tie rod ends, leaking seal on the passenger side front, re-centre the steering etc. No ifs, buts or maybes. Then basic maintenance inspections and repairs if needed.

    Second. After known issues have been rectified.
    Put it on an alligning machine and get a readout of your geometries. Get it on paper and get it handed to you. No ifs, buts or maybes. Then get the manual from this very forum and cross reference your figures with ones stated in the factory manual.

    Third
    Do steps 1 and 2. Don't just start replacing stuff just because someone else did. You'll end up chasing your tail, hemorrhaging money on half arse repairs and bandaid fixes (like your steering wheel) and getting frustrated with an apparently 'incurable' case of the wobbles.

    Fourth.
    Once you have done the basic maintenance, whatever repairs currently needed , have the readout and assessed it. Then logically investigate the issue.

    For the record, long winded 'incurable steering wobble threads annoy me.
