    Pulling right...

    Hey all..... ever since i bought the stang shes pulled right..

    Alignment shops says its within specs....

    What i have...

    01 GT with Eibach pro kit and Eibach Anti roll kit with 18" 2000 Cobra R rims no cast/camber plates ( have some just havent put em on) no bump steer kit installed but may get one in the future. This doesnt happen when i hit a bump either...she just goes right period....

    Its not a slight pull i let go and she goes right pretty bad no matter what road on im...groved or not...

    Heres what i checked...

    Rims/Tires... Rims/Tires have been rotated and still same issue.(new tires)
    Front wheel bearins seem tight no movement either way.... Also at 55 i have a wobble in the steering wheel but goes away at higher speeds (rotation of tires doesnt help)

    heres the specs from the last alignment shop they did say i needed plates

    http://www.tac2cul.net/Front%20Left.xml

    think cast/camber plates will fix this?

    Also any ideas about the wobble in the wheel at 55?

    Something is wrong. The wobble is strange. You may want to call Lees Alignment Shop. 602-275-0104. They have experience with lowered mustangs.

    Thanks bud..

    shop i took it to i have used for years Network Alignment and they have done many a lowered vehicles....

    just thought someone with some alignment knowledge could look at the numbers and see if its off enuff it would cause to pull right..

    but doesnt hurt to get a 2nd opinion either

    The guys from Lees are always at the drag strip and own a few mustangs. Give them a call maybe you could email the log to them and see what they have to say.

    Just a hunch, but you might take a look at your rack bushings.

    Could be a bad tire that could cause that as well like a broken belt. Check the balance on the tires since it's easy enough. Does it do it on all roads? Sometimes with a wide tire it will pull just from groves that get worn in the road from normal traffic. I know my Viper was terrible with alo=most 5 feet of tires under it.

    ive tried rotating tires all round still doesnt help

    all roads no matter what....

    it follows the grooves in da road when they are there but when not, still goes right...

    maybe som slop in the steering joint or rack bushings.

    Is there a bumpsteer on there?

    Since you say it wonders a bit, I'd check for slop first.



    For the pulling right, once things are tight, have them adjust the toe-in.
