X-Over steer probs

Post by My Lil Lux »

Wondering if someone could help diagnose this problem, have set up X over on LN106 lux, steering box is pretty much as far forward as I could get it, 70 series pitman arm, 60 tie rod, to superior flipped arm.

When I steer the car if I steer to the right it pushes one side of the car up, and to the left it pulls the car down, where have I gone wrong, appreciate any help to sort this out.

It's just a combination of height of lift, flexy springs with no panhard. I hope your castor is pretty good otherwise it'll be a PITA to drive onroad. Other than that, it should be too much of a problem.

I Just found another hilux steering box. It has hilux written on it in paint pen and operates in the horozontal plane. Is this an IFS steering box? or a 2wd steering box? or are they one and the same?
