After replacing all steering components, except ball joints, I believe I have "narrowed my constant tug to the right as "torque steer", It always has a tug to the right and really pulls especially under acceleration to the right, if you let off the throttle the tug goes away. Steers fairly good other than that. The research says unequal axle lengths but with the way it is designed both final axles are the same lenghth. Lower ball joints are also listed as a possible cause. I've seen torque steer issues mentioned briefly on the forum, is there any of the esteemed brain trust out there with experience with this phenomenom. Thanks for the help this year to all and
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
Did I mention I am one of the most politically incorrect people I know. Thanks Again.
