Pulling to the right hard. Tire pressure OK. Lugs all tight. Nothing obviously loose underneath. Bushings look good. Any ideas what to check before I head to the mechanic? I took it to 2 general mechanics I have used. First one is not set up for alignment but put it up and looked it over. The only think he saw was a possible leaking left ball joint.

Turned around. Mechanic said the front right tire was were worn on the outside and was causing it to be pulled. Also had lubed it and said specifically that the ball joints and bushings were all fine. I do need 2 new tires, but surprised that the pulling happened suddenly due to a worn tire.... So my question is..... is the report in these photos show it is was way out of alignment or just a little -- enough to cause the wear? Thanks, felllers. |

If it started suddenly I would suspect a damaged tire, either from hitting a pothole or similar causing a belt failure in the tire. That could cause a pull. As for the numbers. The caster angles should match on that vehicle. When they don't it can cause a pull. 1/2 a degree difference is enough to cause issues and you have over that.

Thanks Steve. Looking at the caster, before alignment it was 3.0 left and 3.7 right. After alignment it was 2.9 left and 3.6 right. Does that mean alignment needs to be done again? The right front tow was -.15 before alignment and +0.03 after. That makes sense to me because the front right tire was worn quite a bit on the outside. The rear toe before align was -.13 left and -.07 right. After align was -.24 left and +0.17 right. Is that also something to have corrected? |

Both sides ahould be very close to each other , I'd be demanding they redo it and do it right or give me back my money . I don't know about where you live , but here all 3 dealers have the proper equipment , and none charges all that much - compared to tires at $150 each . -- Snag |

I'd say find a real mechanic, and a real alignment man. The caster should be between 2.5 and 4.5 degrees - and within 1/4 degree right to left. The camber should be between +.8 and -.8 degrees, and within 1/4 degree between sides. The clown that did your "alignment" is a hack. If the tire is the cause of the pull it will pull the other way if you switch tires right to left, and the pull will dissapear if you switch front to back (the first thing to do when diagnosing a pull, by the way) |

After align was -.24 left and +0.17 right. Is that also something to have corrected? You have a solid axle. There is no way to adjust rear toe, but the truck is "dog-tracking". The aerostar has a 4 link coil suspension - a bent component or worn bushing can allow the axle to shift back on one side or forward on the other - causing the "dog track" If there is a significant amount of actual toe in or toe out on a solid axle you have a bent differential housing or axle tube. |

Aerostar again - 2001 Savana jul 2003 -1cr.JPG (0/1)
I had a problem similiar with a GMC Savana. Did alignments, replace
steering box, swap wheels, all on warranty, all to no success. My daughter borrowed it for a couple of snowy days, lost control and head on into a boulder. The steering wheel was sideways, the hood in bungy cords, but it drove fine and no more pulling to the left. After the $9000 repair, is still running straight. Go figure.
