- Saturday evening - night for posts. Thanks to all who responded to this originally. I jacked up the rear end and put jack stands under the uprights, started up the engine and put it in gear to watch-

- I recently replaced a rear hub because the bearings were destroyed. I first noticed a grinding noise coming from the left rear wheel. I took off the half axile assemly and could see that that the >

- That was what caused the wobble I once had. If you have a spare axle/Link/trunnion/hub assembly, Try installing it. It will probably make the wobble go away. Joe -- "If you can't excel with talent,

- Vic, you have looked carefully at the outboard axle end and there is no runout, correct? Even a teensey bit will be multiplied at the wheel. That "wheel base" you mention is where the wheel studs mou

- Uhm, runout? I examined the entire axel from the differential to the "axel hub and flange" and it seems the only wobble occurs outward of the "axel flinger". My references are a VB catalog. As I loo

- Vic, thanks for the VB references. Helps to be talking about the same thing! By runout, I mean a lack of concentricity. If you spin a straight nail between two fingers it will always appear straight.

- Do any of you have any idea what would cause the rear wheels to wobble? This disturbs me. It's also something you wouldn't notice unless you're following you're own car. (an out of body experience?)

- If the wobble is just on one side, take a good look at your half axile on that side. My Spit 30 years ago did this; and it wasn't until I put the rear end up on blocks with engine running, in gear,
