Exclamation Something wierd

Today I was backing my brocno up and something was brought to my attention.

If you are looking at the Bronco from the front and watch it back up the front tires start to bow in and makes it look like this.

\ /

When you pull forward it looks like it should, Like this

This is really wierd.

Any Ideas?

Thanks,

Like this \ / really? That is actually pretty good. If its like this / \ then you are dealing with possible balljoint problems. But the other way merely means the toque is letting the front ride up a bit on the suspension as you back up. Truthfully, its probably not a problem. When backing the alignment areas are put through a completely different sert of stresses and pressures and as long as it comes back when you pull forward, you should have no real problems.

I took it in and had an alignment done today. It fixed that problem. Now on to the next one what ever it is.

Thanks for the advise.
