It's your trackbar... either the nut up top is loose or it needs replaced.

You might want to hit the trac bar upward some to reseat the taper before trying to tighten the nut or it will just spin. Don't hit the grease fitting though.

Need a new track bar, pumped it full of grease and it came right out the side of the rubber. Wrapped that ****er with electrical tape, pumped it full and wheeled her a bit.

Quite now.
Now to pick up a new one.
