Steering pull AGAIN why? why?

sandyt · Jan 16, 2009

the dreaded steering puul on my p38 is driving me nuts - could it be the suspension height sensors was thinking if it was low on one would it pull or could it be the front diff winding up would this cause a pull to nearside??

wheel bearing, low tyre pressure, brake binding, weak/broken spring etc

sorry meant to say have replaced (apologies to all who have seen this before) all bushes to polybushes , shocks,springs,track rod ends , swivel joints,tyres, wheel bearings , discs and pads all round . So could I be left with a steering box prob? it feels ok is smooth under load or free or a suspension height sensor?/

Uneven swivel pre-load maybe.

it pulled before and after replacing the swivel ball joints

... and were they replaced correctly, checking the pre-load and shims each side?

Not trying to teach you to suck eggs, but this can cause problems like pulling to one side or wheel wbble on bumps etc

I am pretty sure as we used the alignment tool when they were pressed on to axle but will check everything again good point thanks
