Wobble in Front end

I just had a new set of tires put on and also had the front end lined up today, its a 94 Toyota 4x4. I can still feel a wobble when going in curves say running around 60- 70 mph, Steering Stabalizer Shock, wheel bearings???? Any ideas?

Jack up the front and try to wiggle. How's that for tech help? :bounce2:

Just flex the wheels, feel for bearing play, bushing wear, check the brakes for drag, pad wear, noise, movement.... might find it helpful to try one side at a time.

And I agree with Dogman about checking the idler arm. There are plastic bushings in the housing that can be replaced cheeply and easily if you find play there.
