What do you mean by the 'radius rod' Wes? Have you grabbed the the top of the wheel and rocked hard in and out to check for play? Have you jacked up one wheel and rocked it at 6 and 12 and at 9 and 3 o'clock? Grab the steering arms and yank them all around too. If you could describe the circumstances and the result more fully it would really help. Jounce or rebound, left or right, accelerating or decelerating?
