Hello, you mentioned the guy who sold you the Jimny said the wobble was probably the wheels just needing a balance. Did he do that? Did you notice the wobble was still there and get a better price? I have a wobble that happens every now and again on the highway and was hopping it was just a bad tire, any luck getting the wobble sorted?

hey oneil.

Well he told me it was just the wheels needed balanced, which he did. I was pretty suspicious of the kingpin at the time, but being 22, and not being overly confident or experienced I just went and bought and and hoped it wasn't bad/know i can probably do the kingpin myself.

Not had chance to do it as im working all week/weekend. Off to newcastle from glasgow next weekend, so hoping she makes it without the wheel falling off!! then I'll have time to sort it all out. Will let you know how i get on
