Wondering Bronco..

I recently purchased a 1991 Bronco with 140,000 miles on it. Overall it is in very good condition and I'm pretty happy with it. One thing that is bothering me though is the tendency of the thing to "wonder" while underway. It seems to want to go just a little left or a little right, anything but straight ahead. It doesn't pull to either side...just drifts. I have jacked it up and checked for loose/worn front end components but have found everything to be in good shape. Put a new set of Michelins on it too. Old tires showed no evidence of misallignment in the front end. Any ideas? Thanks

I have a 1990 with the same problem, I just got "used" to it. I think that it might be the stearing shaft, but I don't know, I just call it the Ford Wobble

Try replacing the steering stabilizer, or if it dosen't have one, install an aftermarket kit. It's a shock absorber that attaches to steering links. Also check toe-in. It should be near 0 deg.
