Well checked bearings and panard bushes all ok
I will try swapping front wheels tomorrow if that dont work maybe time for new steer dampener??

It will be slack swivel housings(not wheel bearing), rebuild and set the shims so the swivel housings are firm to turn with the steering arms disconnected, have fixed this on many occasions.
