    And yeah when you look at the truck/wheel it doesnt appear like anything is wrong, but like I said, its different in person and driving it before/during/after the incident.

    Curious to see what someone who knows their shit says about it.

    I really hope I'm wrong but you may have bent the axle shaft. I've not ever seen an aluminum alloy wheel bend. I've bent the shit out of several steel wheels though.
    Fingers crossed it's just a fubar wheel though.

    It'd be real quick and easy to swap the rear wheels and see if the wobble goes with the wheel or stays at the same end of the axle.

    That's right.

    See, after about 15 years they still have good useable tread, but the sidewalls start to dry rot just from age.

    Nothing (not even tires as great as mine) lasts forever. :D

    Overthinking? I have absolutely no place to store/use these said tools.

    I have a floor jack and all the tools at my parents but no time to get over there
