When you hit the brakes? Sounds like warped rotors man.

What about the steering rods moving? Elaborate please.

i also think they might be warped rotors as well. i had the same problem about having warped rotors when i hit the brakes, but i found out later was because my axle wasn't pushed in all the way into the engine block causing my spindle to push out more than usual. i would double check if both axles are in your block all the way

first i had to change my innner tierods because the wheel easly wobbles witth a light nudge when jacked up. the inner tierods screw into that rod that turns the whole system. that rod moves when i tighten the innner tie rods, only on the driver side is where it moves. thats one idea of mine. i never thought of my axles and warped brakes so thanks guys ill check those out and let yall know. peace out!
