i went mud boggin in my 89 burban and it drove fine before i done it, but now when i hit the brakes to slow down it starts wobbling and it didnt start till after mud boggin. i checked and i dont have mud behind the rims i dont know if i busted a belt in one of the front tires or what. i have a set of old military 33-12.5-15 goodyear wrangler r/t's on it. any have n e idea what it could be?
 
coul be a million things honestly.
Could have warped a rotor by hitting cold mud/water while it was hot, or you could have ruined a steering component by sawing the wheel back and forth in the mud...

Wash everythign real good, then get a friend to saw the steering wheel while you look under, if nothing seems loose there you can further investigate.
 
i checked all the balljoints and steering arms etc. nothing out the way the only thing is my left front tires rubs the steering arm and busted the rubber that holds the grease that connects the steering box to the axle but other than that nothing out the way exect some dry rot on the tires
 
this might be a long shot but i acually had a brake pad slip out from a caliper before, started squeelling with mushy brakes and vibes. as said before, wash down real good, check both sides of rotors for grooves, sand, etc. i would check wheel bearings while ur at it.
