I seem to recall that being an axle problem. Didn't Goonz have trouble with that around SZ?

if the wheel studs are tightened and you can shake the wheel, then the wheel bearings are bad.

Most likely, but also look at your tie rods and ball joints.

Werd. I think if the wheel has movement when you have your hands at the 12 and 6 position of the tire, then it's a bearing, but if it's from 9 to 3, then it could be tie rods or ball joints.

Have the LCA's been replaced? When the inner bushings go out on the LCA's the wheel will move back and forth.
