Cheers DD
Nice decipher.
If my LCA was knackered would that be the reason the car pulls to the right also?
Any idea where I can get right LCA now days? I'm in Perth W.A

yes, whatever is causing the tyre to be that far back is causing the pull to one side.

Take you tyre off and look. You can probably see what's wrong. Or take soem pics and put them here.

Strangely I went and bought 4x new tyres and got them balanced. The car still pulls to the right but no where near as bad. It drives heaps better...

That's masking the problem. Do it right. Either get new castor bushes or then get struts.
Take to your local pedders and get that $14 suspension check. Or you local friendly mechanic

BeeJJ I could tell you exactly what needs to be replaced if you bring it by my house so I can look at it. Otherwise you can inspect it or have a shop inspect it. This type of symptom requires inspection.
