Hi,
I have been having an ongoing issue with my Defender 200tdi. The steering feels very vague, and does not want to stay in a straight line. I believe I may have found the fault, but have no idea why its got it.
I believe the Castor angle on the front axle is wrong, as the angle of the differential is more than that of the front propshaft. Ive got standard front springs. However, the previous owner told me it had a Wolf front axle, something I can't prove as their are no axle numbers. Could this Castor issue be caused by this or is more likely someone's fitted the wrong radius arms, and if so how do I tell?
Thanks for any advice
