    Wheel Wobble & No Power

    You visibly checked the lugs? Not sure if its the lug nuts or not but throw a wrench on them and check to see how tight they are before you hurt someone with a flying tire, and I would have to agree with bobnOH.....a CV joint is either working or not working....ya, sometimes they fail and they...
