When I turn my steering wheel while driving, my car shakes (can really feel it at lower speeds). I gave it the old, jack it up and check the hub test, and nothing. Every mechanic I know said hub. Replaced it and problem definitely still there. Seems to get worse as time goes on. Any ideas as to what else it might be. Any suggestions appreciated. Thank you

P.s. a lap feels kinda hoppy (suspension). When pulling into tight parking spots and I have to turn sharp, sometimes there's a loud click and pop.

Help

Thanks,
Moe

I rarely get these right, but I'm going to go with... wheel bearing! No wait, you already did that... uh, control arm bushing! No? OK, ball joint! Just guessing... :scratch:
 






Yea I'm gonna try the ball joint next. It's a lot cheaper than the wheel hub assembly I just wasted my money on. Thanks
 






maybe get your tie rods checked out?
 






Is your 4x4 fully disengaged ?
 






I vote for the ball joints!

Yikes, that gives me the willies, just thinking that might be the actual problem!
 












I had that problem with the click and pop noise on my jeep. It was the axle shaft, wasn't too expensive from what I remember. Did take a few days to figure out though.
