wobble and shake.........

So I had my car for a long time and it gets ok then sometimes it get worse. They told me a rim was bent because they couldnt balance it, then I went to my old job and balanced it.... :roll: Changed the rims to see if it made a difference, it didnt. The rear bearings were changed about a year ago and the right one is bad again already. Then when I slow down to stop you can feel the car wobble up and down and side to side but I cant tell if its from the front or back. Then sometimes when going fast the steering wheel shakes.
Now I will tell you all the work I have done so far so you can figure it out. I replaced rear bearings, tires, brake drums, brakes, front bearings, hubs, disc, brakes, all shocks.
I am thinking if a rim was bent can it bend the axle a bit? I am out of ideas here, I cant fix it and its getting on my nerves. :x :evil:
I have heard just about everything about what to do, so if somebody has something I have not heard of or had the same problem would be awesome. I will call you a genius and my best friend!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Front suspension is worn. Could be tie rods, pitman, idler or all of them.
Usually shakes in the 25 to 40 mph range. Slower or faster steering doesnt shake as much.

73te27 Yeah all that is new also, it was done less than 6 months ago. Booblook, I replaced the tires I had for new ones about a year ago when I had the same problem, tried different rims and tires, nothing. So tires are good trust me. I told you guys I have tried almost EVERYTHING. :evil: :lol: But keep the ideas coming, somebody has to say something I have not done yet.
By the way I also replaced the driveshaft THIS year. Maybe its time to replace the car?

I hate you!! :lol: Better not be the tires, but I dont know cause I have bought about 3 or 4 pair of tires for the front and rear and the same thing. Can the axles be bent? Im starting to think its a rear axle thingy problem. :x Maybe a gas paint job and a match will fix the problem. :twisted:
