What do you mean by the 'radius rod' Wes? Have you grabbed the the top of
the wheel and rocked hard in and out to check for play? Have you jacked  up
one wheel and rocked it at 6 and 12 and at 9 and 3 o'clock? Grab the
steering arms and yank them all around too.

If you could describe the circumstances and the result more fully it would
really help. Jounce or rebound, left or right, accelerating or decelerating?
