Truck binds when turning - is it the posi-track?
Hey guys,
Been away for the past few months doing some work on m software business. On the last few details of my truck build (see signature). One thing I've noticed is, when making a turn (either going forward or in reverse), the truck feels like it's binding up somewhere. It's hard to describe, but if I notice it most when I back out of the drive way. I backup a bit (straight) and it's fine, and when I turn to the left (or right), I really have to give it a lot of gas to get it to make the turn. Very noticeable. Same when making a left turn from a stop light. It's like something is dragging on the front end or drive train, but only when making the turns. We've checked to see if the brakes are issue, but they are fine. Wheels turn freely. It doesn't seem to be an issue going straight on. We did swap out the axle with a posi-track unit and have the conditioner in it. I've had it in for an alignment through very reputable shop here that deals with classic cars exclusively. They seem to think something in the front suspension might be binding when turning, but are not sure till they get in and start trouble shooting. Any ideas/suggestions on what to look for?
