my calipers pushing back on hard high speed (over 80kph) cornering, only seems to happen on right handers. its a gq twin cab with 33x12.5/15s on 10 inch rims. wheels bearing are good and correctly adjusted .. is it possible for spindles to flex? any ideas? seen it before? :?
thanks

Check wheel bearings again. They loosen up with big tyres all the time.

I would replace the wheel bearings.....you may have an incorrect cup/cone pairing.
