Hi Guys,

Just had laser alignment done on the 90 TD5.

Attached are the results.

I was wondering if you knew what adjustments I could make to fix this?

The guys that tested it said that the results were odd and the only thing they could think of would possibly be the bush on the trailing arm, but they did not seem too sure..?

The car drives ok(isn), but it does pull to the left slightly and I have to steer to the right very slightly to make it go straight..?

The car is completely standard and the chassis looks to be in very good condition by all accounts.

Any ideas?

I think you wasted your beer tokens on this one,there is very little that is adjustable on a standard landy just track and steering rods. But other settings become self adjusting [loose] when joints and bushes wear,a jack,a friend and a pry bar is all that's needed to find out which ones need renewal. Worn bushes on either end of trailing arm will result in a condition known as rear axle steer. Land rovers need large flexible bushes for the suspension to perform off road the down side is loss of road manners when they wear.

unless axle case,wheel rim or swivel ball is bent only wheel bearings will effect camber, get tracking set then centralise steering box

Or a swivel bearing on the way out or loose (lack of pre-load)?
