anyone wanna guess as to whats wrong here

[craigoodwood]

yes i know the pics are rubbish...
at speed and in the rain its got terrible light steering, no feedback at any time and its started to make my wrists hurt from the ratrace every day, there is now very few related parts that aint new and its been tracked and mot'd in the last month... ive got ideas what i think it may be from a look round this morning but ill throw it out there see if someone else has a better guess :)

if you cant see it the n/s wheel is sticking out about 20mm more than the o/s...

If I'm honest that's not ideal mate lol

[jamesy12345]

Are the wheels the same width/offset?? (just a daft one sorry)

[Orca2]

Is the front subframe properly centred on the body. ? Has the car been crashed and fixed in the past.
Tbh if it has been four wheel aligned properly eg By Hunter, it should not really make a difference to how it handles, they will have taken the geometry into account.

[p fandango]

just fit a 20mm spacer on the drivers side lol

[stephenevans99]

I imagine you've checked the obvious...ie tyre width lol

That said, the nearside wing looks pushed in ????

[The Flying Moose]

I'd guess at an undeclared accident and bent subframe or perhaps some other suspension fault.

That said subframe down and bolted up slightly wrong could be an option as discussed above but I'm not entirely sure as I dont recall too much movement in the four bolts that hold the main frame up.

[Redbrick]

I'm not saying this is the same issue but been there done that!

A once highly regarded 'Volvo Specialist' Powerflexed my wishbone bushes. Whilst completing the process the near side wishbone bush was bent. The distance between the two bushes was lessened pushing the ball joint outwards. Mine looked exactly like yours until I replaced the wishbones with new genuine ones.

HTH

[craigoodwood]

well the wishbones are new in last 6 months, subframe can only go in one position as the big rubber mounts are located on the body with big stickyout tabs, tyres are all the same size, wing isnt bent and the subframe is dented but still square....

jamesy12345 is closest as i discovered when i balanced all the wheels recently that i have staggered wheels an id swapped front to back for bit more tread and yesdy i noticed the o/s shock is leakin and the top mounts have different camber from where they sat when if put them back on, nice easy fixes i never like these wheels anyway so dug my white ones back out yesdy too :B_thumb:

Can't believe you can still see the tape marks on the lights even through the fisheye, a lesson here, don't tape up your plastic headlights if you're going on track, the glue on the insulating tale eats into the plastic.

At Silverstone, you only need to tape up your headlights if they're glass.

even more surprising is ive never adjusted them since i fitted them, so it passed the mot with correct height and with the flyeyes and with the markings on them :cool:

[Biff]

Are you finding it difficult to see with the fly eyes?
Mine were bloody awful. lol
Good job you kept the white wheels which I personally prefer!

i dunno ive not driven in the dark with them yet, i never use main beam anyway but the projectors beam pattern before was very distinct from a distance :)
settled, white wheels it is :B_thumb:
