NA steering issues - 12/05/2018 08:14
I'm putting my problem out there as I'm now at my wits end with it. hopefully someone can think of something I haven't.
My NA wanders, badly. It pulls left and right seemingly at will. Under normal or hard acceleration, braking or just cruising. It also pushes away from any king of bump or side to side undulation. Even putting a wheel on a thick painted white line will push it hard left.
The pull is not like you'd expect from say worn TREs where it wanders and I have to correct, it comes all the way through to the wheel. Almost like an invisible man sitting in the passenger seat pulling the wheel about.
The confusing bit,,, wishbones, droplinks, TREs, inner TREs, springs, shocks, top mounts , rear subframe bushes, rear ARB, trailing arm bearings, wheel bearings and bumpstops all new 6 months ago.
I've checked and re-checked every bolt, pushed and pulled and levered every joint and can't find play anywhere.
The tracking has been set and checked twice ( by different garages) tyres are premium brand with good tread and correct pressure.
I don't know what else to do.
