Replaced all the control arm bushes with Nolathane... ride is sooo much better.
Replaced the panhard bushes with Superpro..
Wobble still there at 100kph... booking into Pedders for a re-alignment check and recheck of wheel balance.
Something to note if replacing the panhard bushes on a '08 JK... Superpro has two sizes, up to 06/2008 build and post 06/2008 build.
Mine is an 02/2008 build but it has the post 06/2008 size of bush installed. So you can imagine the mucking around once I found that out with panhard out and on the bench with no bushes fitted!
Also when replacing the upper control arm bushes on a CRD in particular the exhaust gets in the way of extracting the rear upper bolt.
I had to lever the exhaust (which is at that point attached to the engine so no flex). I did manage to wriggle and bash it out but put it back the other way around with the locking tag nut on the inside.
I'm hoping the wobble may just be a weight has fallen off since the balancing was last done, I can drive through it, once it gets past 110 it eases off..
Here's hoping
