Hello,
I have a 07 Express 1500, with a 5.3 Vortex. Not sure if that engine matters.
I'm having an issue with a wobbly front right tire/suspension? I have replaced the ball joints the upper and lower control arms as well as the wheel bearings on both sides. Replaced the tires and wheels. Still the wobbling persist. I am at a loss. Any tips on what to look for next?

To bring us up to speed,
How was it determined to be coming from the right front and not possibly somewhere else?

Edward Fraker

The determination is just a judgement based on the way it feels while I'm driving. A couple of different passengers say it feels like it's right under their feet. While driving the van the steering wheel sort of bounces and I can feel I clunky sort of wobbly from the front right of the vehicle. I don't feel it so much under my feet in the driver's seat. But most definitely in the passenger side

Something we learned,
Sometimes switching wheels from one side to the other will reveal the culprit.

Check the u joints

Edward Fraker

I have taken it to a mechanic, he said it was bad tires. Replaced the tires, still had issue. I then rotated the tires and the problem persisted. So I purchased all new wheels. Nothing.

I suspected the u joints as well. But there is a clunk on the right side as well. I replaced the shocks. The clunky wobble is still there. The clunky only happen when I hit a decent bump on the road. The wobble is constant.

Idler arm or pitman arm? Was an alignment done after the control arm replacement?

Edward Fraker

Yes,
And despite the alignment, there is still a wobble.
I have ordered new tie rods and tie rod ends. I will replace them when they arrive. Have the van alignment done again. Will post update on it when finished.

Warped rotors will make it wobble...If they weren't put on the exact way they came off could cause thie problem

It's unclear to me if the yes was that you had replaced both arms. I sure would if not. These were the culprits on my 08 with a wobble at low miles. They weren't right from the start.
