I have just replaced the passenger side inner drive boot as it was split, everything cleaned and regreased no sign of excessive wear to the eye.

 

I have previously replaced the Drivers side inner half shaft and hub, but taking a closer look at it today I think it may need replacing again, a little bit more play than what I would like but at the same time she is not crashing going into first or second like it did prior to replacing it the first time.

 

None of the other drives are split, but maby worn due to the high mileage, but I am wandering if they might be contributing to the low speed wobble which is just evident initially while the car is dropped down off of the jacks.

 

While doing a few figure 8's there is a slight judder effect coming through the steering column, but it all settles down after a little bit of driving and does not come back.

 

 

There is 200.000 miles on the car now

 

Although the upper strut mounts creak from lock to lock while jacked up, but found no obvious play. Could they be related to the low speed wobble? when they are bedding back into position. Somehow I doubt it! as I did not observe any free play.
