G29 turning radius
Hey,
Just to be sure, as I don't do many wheel alignments on this type of car, the only adjustment for the g29 is toe in/out correct? The issue is when you turn hard right the car turns very sharply and tight, but when you turn hard left it turns fairly wide. It's not even turning on both sides. I was going to inspect tomorrow for possible frame damage where the steering rack mounts to but I want to be sure I'm not missing anything. When I drive straight forward there is very minimal pull to left or right so I believe the wheels are aligned well. Thanks for any input -Steve |

Re: G29 turning radius
check for a bent bracket between the tie rod end and the spindle. it's an s-shaped bracket.

Oh ok the boomerang as I call it lol. Good point, I did glance around it and didn't notice it bent but then again it can be hard to notice unless I remove the tire. I will do that today Thanks -Steve |

Re: G29 turning radius
Look carefully at the front end with the wheels turned left and right and see what looks different.

Re: G29 turning radius
hey guys,
Sure enough the frame where the rack gets mounted is bent, not allowing the arms on the steering rack to function properly. now its resting at a slant instead of being horizontal. I had to use hydraulic body ram and thick metal plate to get it straight again! not easy to do and a pain, but someone must have hit something pretty good under there. thanks again -steve |
