Default New to forum

I am new to the forum. From Missouri, retired Jarhead. I bought a used 2007 1500 Big Horn addition, not real happy with it, but guess I am stuck. Can anyone steer me towards a solution for the wobbling in the front end? It wobbles bad, sometimes when I hit the brakes, sometimes not at all. If I am on a particularly heavy potholed street the whole truck may jump sideways, it's crazy! Also know the tires are about shot, anyone know of a good general purpose tire for the 20 inch rims that won't break the bank?

Default Front end

I have a 2007 Ram 1500 Big Horn edition 4WD 4.7 liter. Took it to the dealer for a front end vibration and they say it's the right front bearing and right axle. The axle has some side to side play in it and I guess the rubbing noise is the bearing. My question is, is it both or if I replace the bearing would I be good to go?

Welcome to the forum. Sorry to here you're having problems. I'd suggest replacing both. They're not extremely expensive.
