odd tire shake

So my drives side front. tire on my 83 zx is shakeable by hand by grabbing the top and bottom of the tire. This is only possible when the trie is on the ground straight foward. I can not shake it when the tire is turned left or right hard ovrr or when tje tire is jacked off of the ground?

Check bearing / hub / spindle nut tightness.
Check Tension rod.
Check control arm.

just in case anyone else has this problem: it is a good idea to check the gland nut on the strut assembly only the front has a gland nut.... it has to be tight
