    what's going on here? front wheel track

    Just about to replace the power steering box and checked to see if wheels are pointed front and center. The drivers side sticks out futher. I am sure this is correct but have never noticed it.

    If its been lifted then the panhard rod "pulls" the axle across to the drivers side (by memory) so you need to lengthen it, easiest done by cutting and adding an adjuster. This lengthns and allows adjustment if lifted further or if it sags as opposed to just lengthening where you're still fixed into a length.

    Someone found some adjusters available from Melbourne at around $50, and as i also need one would love to find the supplier again.

    By all means get a Defender. If you get a good one, you'll be happy. If you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher.

    Hehe on my mates Patrol he put in a 6 inch lift. All done properly and everything realign. Then he took it out after awhile seeing it was quite unstable. But forgot to readjust the panhard rods. He was driving around for about 6 months before i noticed something was wrong. Driving behind him. One side of the car was totally out of the flare and the other hidden under them. A quick fix and quite funny to watch the car drive down the road off centre.
