Re: [T3] Steering Question


<x-charset iso-8859-1>1) make sure the front tires arent overinflated

2) make sure that all is in good order with the front end... alignment is
correct

3) is it lowered? has the front end sagged?  that will reduce or eliminate
positive caster and make it unstable.

Want the front end FAQ?
