Merry Christmas guys.
Posted a thread a few months ago and was grateful for the response.
I curbed my 1996 TD100 Marea Weekend a few weeks ago while skidding on the ice. Although going slow, the force was enough to buckle the n/s front wheel which I changed from another marea model at the local breakers and had a new o/s tyre to match the new one fitted and tracking adjusted. However the car still pulled over to the left so went back and tracking was out. So had it adjusted again but still pulling to the left. Went to a different dealer, Kwick Fit who adjusted the tracking yet again as it had drifted out. However still pulling to the left.
Obviously the impact has put something else out of line. I installed new wishbones about 4 months ago, all good and the tie rod ends seem to be straight and not bent. Strut seems to be ok too. I was wondering if the impact could have bent the angle of the hub to the axle.
I would be grateful if anyone has any ideas as I'm chewing up my tyres quicker than the christmas turkey
Thanks in advance
