Jack it up and have a feel :lol
probably your shims need taking out for a quick fix. Look at the top of your hubs. The bearing is only held in with a few bolts. Undo them, oik out the shims (don't bin) and refit bearing. That'll probably take up the slack. if it doesn't then do the same to the ones underneath
OR just go as you are the trol won't care !

Wobbling in what way bud? Maybe your wheel bearings just need tightened up :nenau

Are they adjustable like on the Terrano?

Dude wheel bearings have to be adjustable so you can set the preload and account for normal wear

Spoke to mechanic he thinks that because I had the swivals done a while back the bearings where not properly preloaded and then last week it did a lot of ruts that are starting to dry out and firm up the problem with them is that mine rides up on the edges being wider than most and puts a lot of stress on the wheels, we also did a lot of water last week which is not good, I hate water.

Will get my mechanic to have a look and chuck a new set of front pads in and change engine oil.

Drop your tyre pressures off roading. That'll get you more grip but also allow the tyre wall to flex more and not stress your bearings as much. Don't worry about water if your bearings and seals are in good nick.

Yes I do let Tyres down as I know this also reduced damage to the lane, seals should be good as all replaced about8 months ago.

Kind regards
