Doubt if it has anything to do with your five speed conversion. Like Gerardojdm said, check for anything loose.
Put the car on a rack, or make sure it's really stable on a good set of stands and shakedown the suspension.
Wiggle the wheel up and down and left to right (check each side obviously). If it wiggles, look at your suspension
components to see where it's loose. Most of the time if you have up and down movement it's an upper/lower
ball joint, and left to right is commonly a tie rod. Those aren't the only things to go bad though. Make sure you
look at your LCAs good, too. I would be willing to bet you've got some suspension issues causing your problem. Just my :2cents:
