A couple of days ago, I was getting ready to back in to a parking spot: put it in reverse, cranked the wheel all the way to the right, and gave it gas. As soon as the truck started moving back, the right front wheel felt like it was hopping/shuddering for a second or two. Is this just your typical "4WD hop"? It felt a bit disconcerting, but I took it to the shop today, and they looked at all the front suspension components - everything is tight, apparently.

Anybody experienced this before?

Thanks!

it seem to be a common "issue" for LR4
for a steering full lock in reverse you might want to be as gentle as your can to avoid stress up your CV joints etc
