Problem solved! No more violent darting.

If you look at the post below you will see that this has been a long drawn out problem. I discovered there were 2 nuts missing on the front of my right knuckle which caused the wheel hub to be out of alignment with the knuckle. Someone left them off a year ago in a shop 1,000 miles away when they put the BJs in. I almost started replacing parts but discovered it when my right hub wouldn't go back on after greasing it.

Nothing's ever the same when you're missing a couple of nuts. Just ask my dog.

On the back side of the wheel/bearing hub should be 4 bolts that hold the hub to the steering knuckle. Torque should be 55 ft-lbs.
