Classic Pulling to the Left

[fastkar]

Hi all,
I have a problem with my Classic 3.9, when braking hard it pullings hard to the left!!!
I have check visually at the brake system but everything looks ok.
Bushes has been mentioned, I wonder if anyone else has had this problem and how did you cure it!
Regards Neil

Check that a caliper has not seized, this will cause the car to pull to the left or right.

Check that your panhard bushes are not worn.

Check that your pads are not worn on one side only.

Check that your tracking is not out, this can be out if your track rod ends are worn out.

My money is on seized calipers, this is common. Remove caliper and spray wd40 or copperslip around caliper piston. Wind in with a G clamp 3 or 4 times and refit.

See, you've been copped by the "guards". Let this be a friendly warning. The penalties can be quite severe for those that err around here.
