Most old cars I've owned have been slaves to the camber and pulled left. What part of the steering system is stuffed to cause this condition? Thanks.

Where do you want to start?
Unevenly worn tyres
Missmatched tyres
Uneven caster
Uneven camber
Incorrect toe
Rear end out of alignment
Wrong wheel offset
Uneven tyre pressures
Bent strut
Bent Lower control arm
Body damage
Brake drag
Worn suspension parts
or my personal favorite, the steering wheel is crooked.

Probably got most of the above plus the front and back repco engine mounts I fitted a few months ago just packed up.

My gen one pulled to the left.... but that was because the chassis was bent.

lmao...ohh I shouldnt laugh, chassis bent....hmmm thats a pretty good reason lol....
Anyways if its pulling hard to the left get ya alignment checked along with all that other stuff...but if it's a very slight pull, dont worry about it, every car has to calibrated to go to the left.

nope they have to pull to the left slighly incase u fall asleep behind the wheel. then atleast u'll slowly pull off the road instead of oncoming traffic.

I used 2 work full time for bob jane tmarts as wheel aligner ( now only doing it part time), and all i can say is, that is the biggest load of crap ive heard in my life. cars are designed 2 drive straight not 2 pull 2 the left.
