Default Front end wobble at moderate speed

My 08 PDS has a bouncing, wobbling at moderate speeds while on pavement.
I jacked the front end up and spun the tires by hand but didnt see anything unusual. I do notice if you pick up on the tire, there is play in the spindle area where it is connected to the axle. You can hear it clank when you drive over a bump. Owners manual shows there is a spindle and kingpin bushing, but I cannot find it on EZGO's website. Is there supposed to be any play at all in there?

Thanks

Not, there should be little, if any slop in axles, king pins or ball joints.

Steering repair is section "G" in service manual, which can be downloaded from the stickies, along with Owner and Parts manuals.

Thanks Johnnie B

I have that and have read over Section G, but I cannot find the parts on EZGO's website or anywhere else.

Must not have looked very hard.
Took me less than a minute and I didn't use the part number, which is available in the Parts manual.

EZGO has all the parts you need, such as:http://www.shopezgo.com/products/Bea...roduct_id=2112

Site sponsors probably has them and everything else you need for a better price.

That link took me to a bearing race..hope I dont need that. I am looking for the kingpin bushings

I can find the parts in the service manual, just not on EZGO's website, but would rather buy them from a site sponsor if they can send me a link.

Thanks

When I bought steering parts, I emailed them the part numbers from the parts manual and they added them to their site.
