    So I took my Taco off road for the first time and now in H2 the steering wheel starts wobbling at about 40mph. Any ideas? Did I kill my baby?

    Any advice is appreciated...

    Damn auto correct. Meant to type weird noise and off roading. ;-)

    Maybe the wheel weights got knocked off the front wheels or a lot of mud is caked on them. Tires are out of balance now. Inspect them

    Thanks again!! My wife can't argue that I need bigger tires and a lift and some armor!! It's all about safety!! ;-)

    I had it stuck in mud up to the bumper. My brother had to pull my out with his Jeep. So mud is probably still inside if everything.

    Just wanted to say thanks again. I missed a huge section on the inside of a couple tires. Lesson learned.

    All good! Better than taking to the stealership and having them charge you $100 for pressure washing your tires.
