[QUOTE="BluRaySS, post: 1391548, member: 13311"] Depending on your truck, it's mileage, and how someone tried to steal the wheels you could have a few different options. 1. If they tried to pry at the locking lug they may have jammed something into the brake caliper. This would bend one of the slide pins that hold it on and cause this. 2. Again with the prying, you could now have a damaged wheel bearing. The problems you describe all match fairly well with this, but it happening due to the force that someone could apply with a tool is low chance. lastly, I would be checking all of your bushings. Upper, lower, sway bar, etc. These are a VERY common cause of the type of wobble you are describing. When you finally tack it down, you'll have to let us know what the answer was. [/QUOTE]
