Hi all
Maz (jonjay) has experienced the play and totally weird pulling in my steering, so im going for the last and finally thing to replace which is the passenger side trackrod. If this doesnt solve it i dont know what will.
Well let me explain again lol, basically when im driving, on cruise control, steeady driving, the steering wheel will be straight, or as near straight, but then when i put my foot down, it pulls mega to the left so i have to hold the steering wheel facing a 2oclock angle, then when i let off the accelerator, it pulls back to the left, so i then have to hold the steering wheel at a 10oclock/11oclock position to correct it. So ive had both all new wheel bearings, track rod ends, balljoints, uprated powerflex bushes etcetc and still it pulls weirdly. So today i was bored and decided to try and crack this weird problem, as frankly im getting very p1ssed off with it now and am tempted to trade it in for a new car. I jacked the car up and did a wheel bearing test on the passenger side wheel, held it a 12 and 6 oclock postions, tried to shake it and no movement, then i grabbed it at 3 and 9 oclock positions and shaked it side to side. There was a tiny bit of play. So i grabbed my trackrod shock it. Theres a bit of play in and out, and my drivers side has none. So could a worn inner knuckle trackrod joint cause this weird play??
