Tyres rubbing

not bent your trackrod have you  :roll:

muddyjames:
not been anywhere to bend it in the past few months. they also look straight. on bar though infront of the diff has a kink in but looks like a machined kink around the diff and not a tree stump one. it also bends the wrong way for me to have driven into it.

extreme90:
yep thats supposed to be there  :lol:
is the tracking ok ? mine has a habbit of setting itself up  :roll:
cant see the swivle housing to make a diff if there loose as the play will be in the wrong plain to effect the steering when catching
sound to me like it something to do with the tracking,trackrod or along the lines
you dont have to catch the trackrod to bend it
it can be ben by hitting things with wheels to hard  :oops:

muddyjames:
tracking is slightly out but thwen garage went to adjust it in about december time the bolts to adjust it are rusted solid and even good old dousing with WD40 wont shift them.

I dont know what a track rod end looks like so cant comment if it is not right or not. :(

I am staying with landy mates this weekend so they maybe able to shed some light on the quest. It is a bit nerving though to be doing 100miles each way with steering as is but on motorways it is fine. small b roads it is worse! could be all b roads around here have a very bad tarmac surface and the steering stops have just worn away. Lets hope so!!!

Range Rover Blues:
If you've had the treacking done or disturbed the track rod at all this will cause problems as the lock stops are ont he front of the swivels but the tyres catch on the back, so the LH hub stops the RH wheel catching and vica-versa.  Friday afternoon design me thinks :roll:
