| Whaddya mean too old?  | Re: play on the wheel Where is the play on the wheel? If it's in horizontal plane and vertical plane then it could be wheel bearings/ wheel loose etc If it's just in horizontal plane then it's more likely track rod end, steering rack worn etc Look and see where the movement is when someone rocks the wheel or moves the steering

| Whaddya mean too old? | Re: play on the wheel If you've just had the bottom wishbone replaced then there shouldn't be any play down there any more. Is the wheel/ whole hub moving around the horizontal? Is there play at the track rod end or steering rack end?

| Whaddya mean too old? | Re: play on the wheel I'm guessing it's the steeering rack inner knuckle joint. When you move the wheel to and fro in a horizontal plane look at the rod that's emerging from the steering gaiter. Is the rod moving a lot with the wheel hub movement or is it staying still? If it's moving with the hub then it may be new steering rack time

| Re: play on the wheel Those wishbone bushes are quite springy. They do move a bit. I think it could be just normal.
