Hi Guys,
I recently got my tires replaced on my 98 D22 with some mickey thompson ATZs, at the same time I got a wheel alignment. Since then my ute has been pulling quite sharply to the right. When going along at any speed above 60 there is a noticeable force required to keep the vehicle straight and it will very quickly pull to the right.
The workshop(Bob Jane T-Mart) seems happy to adress the issue and has me booked in for a third session to rectify the issue after swapping the front tires around to se if that fixed it first. This time they intend to put some shims in but i have no idea what this means. Is it possible that my suspension is worn(bushes etc) and is the cause of the problem as they have indicated that the machine says that the wheels are within the defined factory standard......
What Im wondering is if it reasonable to expect the ute to steer straight or whether there should always be some drift.
Cheers
