What to Do If the Car Pulls to One Side After Replacing the Steering Gear?
1 Answers
After replacing the steering gear, a wheel alignment is necessary to prevent the car from pulling to one side. Without a wheel alignment, the car is likely to drift. The reasons for a car pulling to one side while driving include: 1. Insufficient tire pressure; 2. Different tire tread patterns, as using mismatched tires can easily cause drifting; 3. Severe tire wear; 4. Damaged shock absorbers, where a deformed or weakened spring can affect the car's stability during movement. The car steering gear, also known as the steering mechanism or steering box, is a crucial component of the car's steering system. Its functions are to amplify the force transmitted from the steering wheel to the steering linkage and to alter the direction of force transmission.
