Right turn steering lead on crown roads
Right turn steering lead on crown roads
(OP)
I am fimilar with rack and pinion steeing, but not the fine points of suspension components.
A perfectly balanced and symmetrical steering gear wants to drift to right turn on a crowned road.
What in other suspension components could I look into to prevent this?
Thanks,

If you must, a slight change in castor will pull to one side. I forget which way you do it.

You could use cross camber, I suppose.
Incidentally your vehicle will almost certainly have come with tires that generate a sidepull in their own right (conicity and plysteer).
