Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hi guys.. no WANTED section so I gotta do it this way..
My drag link on the MK Wagon (1986) is bowed up.. (probably a miss-adventure the previous owner had)
Anyway when I travel over 70kph the wheel shudders and when braking hard, also the car always tend to veer left due to what I figure is a 'SHORTER" link because it is bowed, hence pulling out the left wheel..

ANYONE GOT ONE THEY CAN POST TO ALBURY NSW????

Thanks guys

u might find that it is the ball joints........
i have a drag link but the ball joints are shot.....

your tie rod ends may be rooted, i was forever having this problem with mine way back wen....

also, ur steering stabiliser on the front where the steering links run into thats bolted onto the front chassis crossmember by 4 bolts......

put some grease in it and see how u go, gods gift, works most times for about a month

The "bow up " is causing too much "Toe In" thats where the shudder is comming from.
Bend it back straight and get a front end alignment done if it can be straightened ( doesnt have to be dead straight either, the tierod ends can be adjusted out to suit )
Simple and cheap solution

think again ...... the bow up effects BOTH wheels not just the one....
Most likely reason for the pulling left under brakes is the BRAKES !
Check for worn calipers / discs / caliper pistons / brakepads, one of these items on the RIGHT HAND SIDE will not be working up to its full potential leaving the left wheel braking system to do a majority of the work , hence the pull to that side.
