Wheel wobble at M/way speed with slight input to the wheel

As described, i've been experiencing this issue lately. Only noticable at higher speed and when either turning the wheel very slightly, just enough to load it or when braking at similar speed with slight turn. This exaggerates the wobble.
Straight ahead appears fine, as is heavy braking from same speed. Low speeds are all fine.

Now i'm assuming it is a control arm bush.

Mileage is @ 53K

Lower control arm. Thumbs Up
Jack it up and there will be movement from top to bottom when you wiggle the wheel.. Previously..

Will this be the bush or the ball joint on the control arm?

In my experience it will be the ball joint. The arm comes with both fitted anyway.
Here is an example...

I used the britpart ones and they were a perfect fit. They looked 100% the same as the originals I took off.
Personal choice tho' isn't it, Oem or not. I think britpart make parts for landrover do they not?? Previously..

When i replaced mine i used britpart ones. i think they do make parts for land rover so you may end up paying a lot more for basically the same part but with a land rover logo on the box. T24RES, it might be worth swapping the front with the rear wheels to rule out the possibility of damaged tyres or wheel rims before buying anything. '04 td6 se

Something like this probably:



Sorry, a job I have not yet had to do. I think you may need one you hammer like a chisel, but there is a thread on here that shows how using jacks and big spanners. .
