Real bad torque steer an knocking

[Maddukeman]

Looking for some help
Just been out in let nova, after changing control arms ,bushes ,and to solid steering mounts ,the car is all over the road when boosting, worse then norm, drives fine off boost , when stopped and I wiggle steering left -right there's a knocking noise in the rack, checked all ball joints, seen the steering joint under the dash, been upside down in chair and the knocking is defo other side of fire wall, could my rack be shafted and course my terrible toque steer ? Mot due end of month will it pass with a knock ? Also got shit plastic tyers with no grip , will I get worse steer with good rubber on ?
Cheers

Could be rack. But I get bad torque steer in mine just got use to it lol. Are you using a equal length set up?

[Maddukeman]

lol Yer equal shafts on , got to make it better as need to beat scott coopers mk4 disastra without smashing into him :tard:

[torquey]

Defo get some decent tyres on that will help with grip.

[Maddukeman]

Done about 5k on these and wheel spun at least 1k and they still the same, no grip tho

Got a LSD? If not, that's your problem right there...

Sticky tyres will only make it worse

Has it had a toe alignment/tracking since the arms were changed?

[Iain]

Beat me to it, with all that stuff changed if you've not corrected the alignment that can make a car drive superbly or be outright dangerous under throttle.

[Maddukeman]

No I haven't , I'll get it checked out

[Iain]

On the flipside, don't pay for alignment if you'll be replacing the rack shortly. :)

:thumb:, mot end of month so will get them to find the problem , been to see them this morning and said it sounds like its knackered but seems to be doing it job and no play in it, hope they find something when on ramps

Inner track rods could be the issue. My nova turbo drove much better after changing them last year. Will be obvious to the mot guys once it's up in the air if so.

I can't locate the knocking on my transit so next stage is to get tied underneath as it's driven over bumps lol
