Assuming the TRE's are in good order, adjust you tie rod for more toe in - / \.

Really 91Mav? Surely it's more likely to be caster related?

mick54 - assuming there's some adjustment in your arms somewhere, wind in some more caster as a starting point.

I set toe parallel on my off road cars, although that's predominantly because I run bias ply tyres, not radials.

Do check for wear in all of your bushes though.

Long time no see joe.... I was afraid I ran you off....

As Joe said Pictures will help. What kind of set up do you have? 3 link 4 link blahh blahhhh blahhh. How old is the set up? Has it always been this way or is it something that just started? Whats the condition of your bushings?



Mick54 you happen to have the 2 best Suzi / master builder guys in Gman and Joe's attention use it wisely.
