Driving home from work this afternoon and car feels really loose....?!?

Drive up to 60mph and just feels like the wheels are gonna come off

Sorry if it sounds like a crap description but can't think of any other way to describe it..

All the wheel bearings are new and I've checked wheel bolts etc stopped and got wheel balanced this afternoon and their all fine to.

Could it be bushes of some description??

bottom ball joint,track rod ends ?

 

[JonLeonFr]

After some research on tinter-web tonight I am leaning towards track rods because my steering wheel hasn't been straight with the wheels since I had new tyres and tracking checked even tho tracking was bob on

Steering tie bars ? Mine were goosed at 85K, 1/4" of play in one of them.

 

[JonLeonFr]

Have ordered new track rods and I'm gonna change them Sunday on my day off.

Hopefully will sort the problem as it's annoying and quite worrying at same time
