Help! Wandering problem.
I finally broke down after reading how great Excursions are and got a 2001 7.3L 4WD Diesel Excursion with 55,000 miles (all stock with original suspension parts). It's in nice condition and I like it but driving it home 300 miles I noticed I needed constant steering inputs to keep it centered. It was really bad compared to my previous GMC Yukon.
Well, I spent a couple of hours searching this site and there seems to be lots of issues here with lots of potential fixes....
Toe in on Alignment/Radius Rods/Hellwig/shocks/steering freeplay adjustment/ball joints/tires/etc...
Well, as you'd understand just blindly doing everything above would be cost prohibitive.
So how would I go about where to start? I don't really have any mechanical experience so I would have to use a shop to do the work.
