Wandering Disco

Recommended Posts

Noticed the beast tends to wander around a bit when I get above 50 mph. :huh:

Can anyone confirm that this is simply a normal trait for having no anti roll bar, 3" lift, and oversize wheels and tyres fitted?

Doesn't seem to be any play in the steering tbh.

I had this problem a few weeks ago, and I changed the swivels and wheel bearings only to find it was the same!!! I then changed the steering box and it is now like a new disco- perfect steering.

You may need castor corrected radius arms.

or

If you find it steers one way on accelerating, then steers the other on over-run.

Replace the trailing arm bushes.

Adjusted /tightened up the steering box today.

Marginally better, but still a bit unerving on the motorway if you gently lapse into a false sense of security.

Really does remind me of steering a holiday cruiser on the Norfolk Broads a couple of years ago.
