Steering jerk to the right

FreedomKJ · **Posted:** Tue Nov 17, 2009 6:18 pm

First off.. Hi guys, miss me?

On to the problem:

My steering pulls sharply to the right with every rotation of the wheels, even when moving very slowly.

Any ideas what this could be? I was thinking warped rotor at first, but that shouldn't make it pull when just rolling along and it doesn't change at all when I brake.

Any suggestions would be highly appreciated!

It's been a while, but that's not it because it's not a constant pull. I should have called it more of a "jerk" to the right.

I was going to suggest swapping the front tires and seeing if the problem followed. That would definitely tell you if the tire was the issue.

Hadn't thought about the tires. I'll give that a shot when I get home today and let y'all know.

Clueless, I owe you a beer.

I've been trying to figure this thing out for months and never even thought that the tires could be it.

All the tires looked fine on the vehicle, but I pulled the front driver's side off and it was so out of round that it wouldn't even stand up on its own. Put the spare on in it's place and tada! No more wobbling or steering pull.

Guess it's time for new tires!
