Default 93 xj wobble

Hello all, recently I have noticed my jeep has started this new habit where it starts to wobble a little when I first hot the brakes, it a also wobbles when I turn, making a popping noise at the same time and also makes this popping wobble at 50-55 mph... Any clue what could be wrong?

I guess I posted this in the wrong spot....? Anyways I've been driving another vehicle until I could get a chance to look into my issue on the jeep. Turns out I had 3 broken lug studs on the front passenger wheel, how my lug nuts didn't rattle off I don't know but I got it fixed no. Thanks for the help!

Don't know how your thread got missed but GLAD you got it straightened out. If it the thread thing happens again bump it to the top.

Have any idea what the story is with the broken studs? Need to check the other wheels?

Sorry we missed you. On busy days posts can get pushed down the list.. Most people never go beyond page 1, unless the are searching for something.

It's cool man I recently had a new set on rims put on and my thoughts are that they didn't put them on tight enough so they kinda work loose and sheared the bolts by the time I ever found out, but I cant be sure trying to look more into it !
