    still need help with car issue (videos)

    so i jacked the car up and when i put it in first to let the wheels spin, only the left side spun...is that bad?

    also the left wheel shakes alot more than the right one, the lugs are tight. bearing issue? the car has been feeling weird when driving, it feels like i'm drivin over little bumps and it gets faster when i drive faster.

    heres the vids if it helps at all...first one is of car driving, second is of play on the wheel.

    i heard its not good to let the tranny spin without a load on the ground...dunno why tho

    um one side spins because you have an open differential

    i think the play on the right side is a balljoint or bearing prob, how do your LBJ look?

      that does seem like a bearing problem. both wheels have some play so if you just replaced one then that may still be bad.

          look up at your upper control arm. thats a ball joint. now look down low. youll see two like it. the larger of the two is the lower ball joint. the other is on the tie rod. all of your ball joint boots should be in good shape. if theyre ripped the joint can dry and fail. ive seen what a ball joint failure can do. at high speed youd be luck to live.

              shouldnt look like a sponge. its an actual joint with a rubber boot over it. im not sure what you mean by spongey thing but i dont think your looking at the right thing.
