I recently fitted a passenger side driveshaft from Tegiwa, the replacement came without a rubber balancer.

The drivers side is possibly the original and has the rubber balancer on, will having one with balance and one without cause wobbling when driving/breaking?

I paid £100 through Tegiwa, I could of got one cheaper but the previous owner had a cheap one fitted and the CV was knocking after a month, so thought I'd try Tegiwa, no need to send old one back, and quick delivery.

Think I've narrowed down wobbling to extremely warped rear brakes, I've also got some play in the support bearing which could attribute to the slight side to side feeling sometimes when at higher speed's.

The parts list just keeps on growing, its supposed to be getting shorter!!!
