Alright guys

 

Just got home, and as i was coming up the lane my landy's steering started pulling a hell of a lot to the left, at first i thought i may have a flat, had a look and nope, didnt have a look under the hood at the steering arms its dark and i wanted to get inside.

 

I wont be needing it till monday really so its not a major thing at the moment, just wondering if anyone could suggest what it may be, off the top of their head like, so i know what i may be in store for :001_smile:

 

Oh yeah its a 1984 Land Rover 90

 

 

Cheers

Liam

 

You did not mention if you were braking at the time? :confused1:

 

It would show the characteristic you describe if under braking. Under normal driving conditions a track-rod end failure or bearing collapse in the hub would give this indication and be felt through the steering wheel. There are a number of others but these seem the most likely in my experience. Without being able to take a peek I would not drive your 90 until you either had it checke dout or check it out yourself. Don't want to be reading in another thread that LR90 driver veers off a road and is injured now do we!! :thumbup1:

 

Finally just have a quick peek and make sure all the wheel nuts are there and torqued up.
