Confused! Steering problems & Tracking

[Ben_SaxoForte]

I've got this problem with my car pulling to the right, if I drive in a straight line and let go of the wheel it will just drift to the right and it feels like i'm fighting with the steering all the time! I've had my tracking done but starting to wonder if it was done right now? also I have had the car jacked up.

Wheel bearings are new
Track rod ends are new
Wishbones and balljoints feel ok

When i have it jacked up everything feels pretty firm also my passenger front tyre seems to have worn out more than the drivers side don't know if thats a sign of anything? could this still be the tracking if it was bodged?

Check your tyre pressures. Uneven tyre wear would indicate poor tracking and alignment. Don't know where abouts you're from but I'd suggest a visit to Wheels in Motion if you're nearby.

Tracking mustn't be right..

May sound daft, but you know the 3 nuts on the strut top mounts? Got a picture of how your's are?

Can be put on wrong, and no matter how hard/long you try, your tracking will never be 100%.

the nuts should look like this:

If that makes any sense lol.

Pmsl love it.

Am I right, the top of the strut have 4 holes but when stood at the front of the vehicle the top left is missing on both and should be like that?

Yeah that's the right way mate, my diagram must work then

Lol yeah my nuts look like that... looks like im just gonna have to take it somewhere else to get the tracking/alignment done and see if that works. Not sure if there is a 'Wheels In Motion' in staffordshire..
