hey,

 

my escort is all over the place once again, when i accelerate she will pull one way then when i left off she pulls the other way ive had the:

 

new bottom arms

new tyres

tracking done

 

theres no play in the drop links. Theres a tiny bit of play in the anti roll bar but with the amount of play it has i cant see it causing the problem i have.

 

Checked the engine mounts last night the rear gearbox mount doesnt seem the best, fair bit of play in it but would that cause the car to pull?

 

Anyone else have any ideas what could be causing it?

is the play in the ARB even on both sides?

 

if one bush has gone on one side you'll experience uneven pulling and braking.

 

really if your getting any play you should change the ARB bushes as you've no chance of diagnosing with them in the mix aswell :thumb:

yeah its the same both sides, but i dont think it moves more than about 3 to 5mm when i pull real hard at it... Ive never checked it before or checked a tidy one... so im not sure if its not meant to move at all or slightly or what lol.
