mk1 cab

[golf on 20s]

just bought a mk1 gti clipper cab, when im driving the car seems to be a bit wafty on the road and a bit drifty, ive had the steering geometry done at my local volkswagen dealer, i put coilovers and new top mounts on, but its still quite floaty, any ideas anyone?

Is it when you in a straight line?

You may want a bit more toe in... I think the paramters for the toeing is -1.5 to 0...  If its set to 0 you may get a bit of uncertainty in the straight on position.....

Just an idea.

all thats all fine mate, someone told me that a lower front strut brace, do you think this will help

sounds like the wishbones are gone (or the bushes on them!)

How do you know? When they set the tracking there is a tolerance... I've found that if the set the tolerance to close to the 0 poisition (I.e. wheels are exactly parallel).. Setting them towards the other end of the tolerance gives the car a little toe in and hence firms up the car in a straight line.. I got mine changed as i had the same sort of problem.

lower strut brace will stiffen up the front.. I already have an upper an lower one
