Keep pull to the right after 4" lift

Post by iamgq »

Hi guys, Thanks for all the replies related to panhard rod yesterday. We managed to find a way to accurate adj them.

However, my truck is now seriously pulling to the right when driving. Is it because we don't have the 3 degrees castor bush in? I am still running the original castor bush.

Any idea?

Thanks in advance

yip..... sort the castor for sure. GQs are a death trap with incorrect castor.

Dropped radius arms, correction plates or drop boxes are the choices.

I'm a fan of dropped radius arms.... I'm sure a million opinions will follow.

Good luck with it mate.

Definately need castor correction - but lack of castor normally makes it wander, not normally pull to one side.

If you have a Return to Centre steering dampener and it is not adjusted so that the spring has no tension in the straight ahead position then this will cause it to pull. Seen it happen a few times - so just a thought.

I lifted a vehicle up quite high without correcting castor and it did seem to pull to one side more then the other. Very dangerous with heavy braking.
