Front end squeak and wobble. I am wondering what can cause this. The car has new front tires and the wheel bearings and front tie rods were replaced (although I am not sure of the quality of the work from this mechanic) were replaced with 119,297 miles. Any ideas?

Hello heydenout

Bounce the vehicle up and down hard at each wheel and then let go. See how many times the vehicle bounces. Weak shocks will allow the vehicle to bounce twice or more.
Springs do not normally wear out and do not need replacement unless one corner of the vehicle is lower than the others. Overloading your vehicle can damage the springs.
