Thread: Spot the Difference

wheel off set doesnt usually cause crabbing, axle misalignment does.

In a series this is usually because of spring sag on one springl, failed spring center bolts and worn suspsension bushes.

Thanks Dave, I replaced my suspension with Rocky Mountain Paras but didn't do the chassis suspension bushes at the time I've bought some since and plan to put them in in the near future. I also have new wheels on the way so this problem will be eliminated soon anyway, I was just curious.

I've been driving this way ever since I bought the Land like this. I've been told it crabs, is this a symptom?

I think the different offset would only be noticeable if you've got a 6" rim.Have you checked the number? It should be on the raised bit between two studs. .W.
