Hi guys looking for advice on steering I have a97 disco and it has developed a wobble at speed

It feels more like a loss off steering for a split second then it returns

I cannot see any damage to any parts I recently had track rod ends replaced

Does any body have a clue

Get someone to wiggle the steering wheel while you watch all the moving parts , start at the steering rod into the steering box ! Then grab the drop arm making sure it moves in time with the wiggling steering wheel !! Work along all ball joints etc , you may find any play this way!! It's not uncommon for the drop arm to come loose !!

New steering damper wouldn't go a miss

Thanks guys

I have put a new damper on steering and all the bearings are new so I'm going to check for loose nuts and such

Red hand I'm not sure what a rear a frame is so I will have a look in my Haines manual

Thanks again

Thanks for all help

I have tightened all nuts up and had tracking done and this seem to have done the job

On to what ever comes next
