Rotate tires front to back and get the same thing? 99 Tahoe im inclined to think it needs a new idler arm at minimum

My 99 Tahoe had a similar problem. Steering wheel would jerk to left or right on bumps or rough roads. Went through everything you did. Ended up changing front shocks, which made a huge improvement.
