But if you can't find anything bent, here is one last thing I discovered,
and it helped me to improve the handling of my car when it was pulling to one side. Align the steering. Get underneath and measure the how much of the thread is showing on the tie rod end adjustment, both sides of the car. Just in case you have two different tie rod ends, measure from some reference point under the ball joint, back to some reference point on the rack end (inner ball joint). These measurements should be the same. If they are not, loosen the lock nuts and wind the long side in by a certain number of turns. and the short side out by the same number of turns. Do this until both sides are the same. Then you might need to get inside the car and shift the steering wheel around a couple of splines, so that it lines up with the new straight ahead position. Good luck Cheers... jondee86 |
