97 grand cherokee front end wobble
i have a steering wobble in my front end on my 97 grand cherokee. already checked ball joints and pretty sure the tires are balanced as well...seems to be getting worse. the only thing i have left to check i believe is the tie rod ends.. any suggestions???

Check the tie rods. If you bought the jeep used most likely the TRE have never been replaced. get someone to shake the wheel side to side with the engine off and check the TRE for play.

Agreed, TRE's are Tie Rod Ends, they use a ball and socket and it can be worn down over time causing play in the steering! Good luck!
