Hi, I have recently replaced ALL the suspension in my VL, that is adjustable coilovers, adjustable radius rods, adjustable strut tops, larger sway bar, new lower control arms and link pins. Now I took it to a suspension shop to get it all setup, which they did but were unable to test it on the road as the car wasnt registered and by the time I put it on the trailer, went home, took it off the trailer and put it in the shed the wheel alignment was out (wheels facing inwards). I then realigned it by eye (using the tierod ends) so it was close and drove it to the end of the street and back and when I got back the alignment was out again (this time wheels facing outwards) Correct me if I am wrong but it can only be a steering rack issue? Anybody had a similar problem or got any ideas? Cheers

Yeah...maybe? Rack is skipping teeth? You should be able to replicate it on a hoist/jack stands

Any other idea, with the car off the ground and wheels off everything seems to be firm and tignt...

Makes me thing it was correct and you adjusted it out,You should of test drivin it. Marty

Double check the steering rack mount bushes because if they are rooted it will allow the rack to move left and right depending on which way the steering wheel is at full lock.

But that would not let both wheels move away from each other Both would go the same way. Marty Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Marty Certainly wasnt correct prior to adjustment... it was pushing the ramps outwards on the car trailer and felt the same driving it as it did after I made the adjustments

I ment after the shop had adjusted it. Cheers Marty

Cheers Marty So did I... it was driven on the trailer and off the trailer when taken for a tune (which was after it had been aligned) and it was pushing the ramps outwards and the tuner went to take it for a drive and the front end was way out. So something is causing the front end to move out of alignment

Take it back to them and ask them to fix it.

if you have adjustable strut tops they may be slipping, i know that happened on mine a few times
