Isuzu Repair: 95 Trooper - Vibration when turning, tie rod ends, wheel bearings


Question
Daniel - Whenever I am stopped, and start off and take a left or a right, I get this vibration in the front end.  I checked the tire pressure, and it's fine.  It has 111,000 miles, so maybe it's tie rod ends or wheel bearings/ball bearings?  Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

Answer
I see Jamie. Well I would go out and raise the vehicle and place on jackstands. Push in on the wheels as hard as you can. If there is a clunking sound and the wheel moves in or out even a little when you push in or pull on it. Then either or both your outer and inner wheel bearings are bad. Then press up on the wheel and if there is any movement at all, then either your tie-rod or ball-joint/s are bad. Maybe even a center link as well. If you notice any un-even wear on the tires your front-end alignment is definately to blame as well. Also the actual wheel and or tire or maybe something as simple as a wheel-weight fell off and is causing a slight vibration because it would then be out of round okay Jamie? Please let me know if you have any questions and have a great day.
