Default Please help

I'm considering getting a wraith that's pre loved
But it has a weird wheel wobble in the front axle
Can someone tell me if they ever experienced this before

Could be a few things or combo of them bushings that hold the knuckles to the c's, bearings, sloppy servo, sloppy rodends/piviot balls.
Nothing that can't be fixed.

agreed. Looks to be some slop in the rod ends. But it also looks like the drag link to the servo moves with the wheel but maybe also at the servo?
What Tapped-out said about the stovepipe C-hub bushings as well.
Perfect time for some alloy CHUB upgrades and new links! Don't forget the no-slop knuckle bushings.

Could also be a bent axel shaft? But also nothing that can't be fixed.

The long side looks like typical rod end wear, the diff side looks like the upper bushing could be missing and the inner axle bearing is shot. Not a big deal.
