[Fot] LSD

Hi Nick from Nor Cal,

I did changes to the rear:
1. Changed from 4.1 axle to 4.55
2. Swapped a welded diff against an LSD, Sailsbury type.
3. I welded the axle tube to the housing.

I have hard bushes at the springs rear. No rods just stock design.

With the locked rear I had no  self steering.
It is not a bad steer but it is feelable.

Cheers

Chris,
A few thoughts...
has it always done this or is it recent (added more hp lately?)
check for anything loose/broken (spring leaves can break and be hard to spot if at the axle junction)
cracked frame (check at the  center "X" area as well as the where the rear of the spring mounts to the frame area)
soft spring eye bushings
what sort of additional link do you have for the rear? traction bars or upper link? if nothing (cannot tell from video) it may be time to install one
disconnect emergency brakes and see if the problem changes

if everything seems OK...detune the engine, you obviously have too much power!

always pulling a little "to the left" myself...
Nick in Nor Cal

I have the trouble that the car does pull a little to the right "on
hrottle" and to the left "off throttle".
Does anybody see a reason for that?
