Steering Wheel Vibration

Some don't and mine won't or it will be gone....I will be through screwing with the tires soon and then I will go thru the entire front end ...bushings....tie rods ...whatever...and lastly install rag joints with vibration dampers...my fricking jeep is smoother than the SP...

Before you replace the front end, be sure you have all four wheels properly balanced and checked for roundness. I've had the same problem you have twice now, and the last time it was a rear wheel that was bonkers. At first I focused on the front and was more than a little frustrated when nothing I did there helped. It finally dawned on me that with a light car, a vibration anywhere would easily be transmitted throughout the car. A careful Road Force balance of the rear wheels fixed it. Then there was the first time I had this problem.....(you don't want to know).
