Help Required
I have a v8 110 station wagon with a steering issues.
In a straight line on good road no probs but give it a bend and it seems to steer itself.
It is standard apart from 285/75/16 st s on modulars,heavy duty( but standard height) springs and shocks and a deflex kit.
Have adjusted the steering box which made it a bit better but still bad enough to generate a farmyard smell from the drivers seat now and again! :shock: :shock: :shock:
Have I missed anything????
Cheers
Frank

It could be a few things, Panhard rod bushes, Steering track rod ends, UJ's on steering column, Radius arm bushes

Look inside the engine bay where the steering column comes down to the steering box. in that line there are two UJ's
