Default Re: suspension issues with a BFIII wagon.

Well........., I took the bullbar off and took it to a tyre place for a wheel alignment. The guy told me the alignment was out by 6mm!! I don't understand how it could be that bad and still track straight but it did. Once I got it back it transformed the car. All the twitchyness went away, the odd tyre wear seems to have stopped and it even felt pretty good on dirt roads even with the stiff suspension. The rear is still too stiff IMO and the rear wants to step out a little too easily but all in all it's not too bad if you don't push it hard.
The bullbar is back on it now to see if it is going to affect the wear of the rear tyres but so far it's all good. I'm going to use it to pull my Delica to the diesel mechanic next week on a car trailer so we'll see how good this towing set up really is.


Cheers
