    I even had an old mud bogging truck I know how tough trucks should be newer trucks and newer part are not as tough as the old one and I know it was my fault that I messed the tundra up but I am going to fix it

    @Gary43 I see what you mean now.

    If all the wheels are like your video, you clearly have huge runout and side-to-side movement at the outside tire diameter. Not knowing if your tires and wheels have ever been right, this problem could be due to bad tires or bent wheels. I would remove the wheel, then replace and torque the lug nuts. Then use a dial indicator on a magnetic base to indicate the hub and rotor to find out if the movement is in the wheel assembly or the hub/rotor.

    Well it's two different Broncos the white one I used to drive on the road the yellow one was one I bought for a mud bogging truck and the yellow hood was a good hood that I traded to a guy for the gray Hood when I bought the headers from him so he cut me a deal because he wanted the hood to go back on his truck

    John Lakeman I have other posts where I said that I've tried the spare tire tried different rotors and a lot of different things even from old tires to the new tires still done the same thing and when I first got the truck it did not have that problem it rode smoothly like a brand new one like a Cadillac LOL

    You need to systematically eliminate all potential causes, not simply exchange parts. If you remove the tire and wheel and indicate the hub and rotor, and find little radial runout or face runout, you will KNOW the problem is isolated to the wheel and tire assembly. If you have runout on the hub and rotor, then you know you have problems in the suspension, axles, etc.

    Here is an example of a relative inexpensive tool you need for this:

    https://www.amazon.com/Magnetic-Bas...&qid=1607312006&sprefix=dial+i,aps,242&sr=8-3

    It's Chinese, and claims 0.0005" resolution, but that kind of accuracy is not necessary for your problem...it could read in sixteenths of a inch for your runout.

    That’s awesome. Not a lot of mud in my part of the country but you could definitely find places to have a lot of fun in that thing!

    You should consider sticking around. Lots of good people here like @JohnLakeman to help figure out your issues.

    Sounds like something is bent for sure. I'd recommend taking it into a qualified shop for diagnosis before throwing parts at it.

    see sig for mods.....
    Thread hurts my brain, but will give it a shot.

    Your '2 foot Jump' likely racked your rear axle twisting it a bit in it's mounting on the leaf springs, or maybe a shakel. This would NOT have bent the rear pinion yoke or u-joint on the driveshaft, and IMO, the rear u-joint and driveshaft movement is minimal. The irregularities on the rear tire may be just a bad tire, and is also minimal, likely normal. I bet 99.9% of people would find the same if they did what you are doing to test. Anyway, ALL that will be very noticable if your rear shocks are shot.

    When you do your new lift, change out the shocks, ensure proper rear axle alignment, I bet it will all go away.
