Steering Issues

[psycho6285]

Im having a problem with the steering im my LCR. the car needs the tracking doin as i changed the wish bone so the camber angle is now out.

The issue im having is when i accelerate the car pulls to the left then stops when you release the throttle, even when holding the steering wheel hard. Im having to steer in the opposite direction to keep it straight, meaning it snaps back when i release the throttle. Im just wondering what you guys think could be the problem, or is it just the camber angle causing it to do this.

Just for a note, i have new: Top mounts, Wishbone, balljoint, droplinks, ARB bushes.

I had to replace the above due to hitting a pot hole, ended up being the wishbone, but changed all as they needed doing.

Any time you do any work on suspension and steering you need to have the alignment done.
It will save money as you won't be eating your tyres and it will handle as intended.

The toe in and out is correct, but we didnt do the camber. Im just wondering if it could be Track rods or something like that.

It feels like the wheels turn when the power is down even tho the steeing wheel dont move.

just wondering if anyone else had this?

I think the camber adjustment definitely needs to be done. I think I read something about this on the TT forum, but I can't find the link. The guy who had this problem also needed camber alignment.

TBH that really sounds like something is loose, Ronin225 had something similar and one of the wishbone bolts was loose so the wishbone moved when putting on the power then moved back when off power, basically steering the car
