Car Steering weirdly

[Cheap6]

FWIW, the advantage of a Watts linkage over a Panhard bar is that the diff. doesn't move laterally with vertical movement. One practical manifestation of this is the need for an adjustable Panhard bar where a Commodore is lowered while an adjustable linkage is not required where a Falcon is.

Yes, a misaligned, as in not perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, rear axle can steer the car and cause a strange steering feel, different in left and right hand turns.

Hey Zapp you say its a ford thing but how many holdens have the 9" diff in them thats a ford thing as well

Get a proper 4 wheel align done (explain to the aligner what your issue is) and go from there.

Most of the time if you ask for alignment, you get a 'toe and go' on the front wheels only.

Dude now old are you, I used to have a cut down 9" in a Torana back in the late 70's.
The ford 9" diffs are old school now, and consume too much power in drive train loss turning those big gears..
The 78 and 80 series Borg Warner Diffs are more than up to the task these days..

Dude I was talking to a friend of mine still involved with V8 taxi racing.
And he told me there are 12 genuine Ford parts used in the Holden V8 super taxi and 14 genuine Ford parts used in the ford super taxi..
What a Pissa Hay
