truck problems

[uh-oh]

yo so the bronco runs like a dream engine/transmission wise

but when I hit turns sometimes the wheel gets weird on me. like if I hit a left once im in the lane and straighten it out it kind of sticks like it slightly wants to keep pulling me left. so I compensate by holding it right a little. but then out of nowhere it will click back to normal and its like oh shit its trying to pull me right now.

so basically sometimes when I drive im swerving left and right in an attempt to keep it straight. not bad enough to switch lanes on me or pull me into traffic but still alarming

what do you think it is I have no idea

taking it to the shop here in a minute but word trying to brace myself for the prognosis

thinking its maybe alignment? ball joints? tie rods(sp)?

dude put new tires/wheels on it a couple months before I got it maybe he didnt do something right?

[Wise Wiggles]

yeah sounds like the alignment or balljoint may be fucked. you don't work with anyone who knows cars?

[uh-oh]

yea thats the only reason i think it might be the alignment/balljoint or whatever haha.

i havent had anyone get under it/look at it for realzies tho

[Ghost1]

I had rack an pinion (sp? Idc) alignment, ball bearing an zum whole othdr wild shit


Only reason i knew it was fucked tho was cuz at about 40 mph the car made this crazy humming noise like the engine was gonna blow....turns out it was the ball bearing shit .... at 50 mph the humming stopped....was weird

Dropped like 2 bands on it.

alignment or cv boot leaking grease everywhere so it's getting stuck due to friction

if not that, problem with the rack and pinion, might have shorn a tooth in there, might be the ball joint, who knows.

[uh-oh]

yea i had my dad drive it and i followed him in his truck

he was all shook like wtf man i don't know how you drive that

but word he thinks it might be the "steering box" but he's like me he don't know shit he spent his life working on the outside of cars.

but yea its at the shop now waiting on a call back for their diagnosis

yeah steering box is where the rack, pinion, and ball joint reside that control steering via the axle.

prob did snap a tooth

[Wise Wiggles]

My day has consisted of Mucinex, cough drops & Kleenex. Fun, I know..

Uh oh smoking near ur equipment is just plain retarded

[Spoken]

Lol..

It's either ur tire rods, cv boot, control arm. Also could be a pulled tire.. (one of ur tired has a clot pulp making the tired lopsided so it throws off the traction)

I think you will find smoking is the best thing any man can do anywhere at any time.

Except in bars here, excluding some that don't care.

I hate not smoking in bars cuz now i have to go outside wtf i don't wanna be outside when i'm getting drunk, it's wet out there.

[uh-oh]

WITTY GETS ALL THE REP

but yea mike wrecka i'll blow my smoke right in the circuitry

asking me not to chainsmoke when making music is like asking marvin gaye to stand up when he records

Im having the same trouble in my subaru rite now. A while ago a ran a pothole hard and it blew my tire and bent my control arm to shit. So i replaced the tire and bought a control arm. I swapped out control arms and never got it aligned. Now its been a few months and the car wobbles like a phat slut booty shaking. Like its possessed. Im thinking i may need new tires and definitely an apignment. But there may be some other shit going on that im not awware of concerni g my suspension. Basically.. my advice is, try getti g your tires balanced forst. You may have thrown a counter weight.. its not unheard of and this would cause an odd feeling in the steering. If that doesnt work. Maye an alivnment kight help.. otherwise it could be you suspension somewhere is damaged. Worse case scenario... your rack and pinion is fucking up.. check your power steering fluid and see iv the car makes funny noises when you turn the wheel. If so.. could be the rack man. But thats worst case... a rack is big money unless you know how and have the right tools and equipment to fix it yourself.. in a bronco -i imagine the rack would be a massive job. The o e i did in my mercury mountaineer was an i sane job alot of work. Good luck with it tho. 1
