2015 Precedent Front Wheels Wobble
Hi all. I am sorta new here. I think I created an account a while back when I first bought my CC but haven't had to post anything before. There's a great wealth of knowledge here and I was hoping someone could help me pin down a fix for my problem.
At this point, I am wondering if new hubs would resolve this but based on my haphazard test on one, I am not sure that'll fix it. I am just looking for other things to check now. Here are videos of one of the wheels and hubs being measured. https://vimeo.com/446297470 https://vimeo.com/446297469 And a pic of the cart with the larger wheels: |

Re: 2015 Precedent Front Wheels Wobble
If it were mine, I would pull the wheels and look at the hub bearings and the spindle. I was thinking that if you installed a drop spindle lift it may have made it worse. You never know what that cart may have looked like before it was rebuilt. That pretty body can be covering up some ugly stuff. Don't ask how I know this. LOL
Are your wheels aligned properly? Someone with a lot more knowledge than me will be along to help you out. |

The cart builder has a great rep so I’d be surprised if it was anything major and he missed it. It’s going back to him later this month for a motor and controller upgrade so if I can’t figure it out on my own I’ll ask him to take a look at it. |

Look at the front hubs for cracks around the lug studs. If the wheel nuts where german-torqued on (uber-tight) then the lug studs may be trying to pull through the hubs and you might be about to lose a wheel.

I hadn’t considered that but I’ll look at them closely. They were on tight. I’d say easily over 100 ft lbs and probably then some. Is 60# sufficient you think?

Re: 2015 Precedent Front Wheels Wobble
I would check the toe in and camber. That and the bushings are what causes the death wobble.
