built a tow bar for my bucket as am planning this late summer to take the car to a track about 140 miles away and thought would take the motorhome as the burn about the same amount of gas anyways.
thouth i would just flat tow it as its not too far and i am not planning on making a lot of trips with it.
built the tow bar its squared up perfect. it hooks to the front off the bucket fine but the car wont steer. it goes straight fine and tracks good,but as soon as i turn a corner the steering turns with the tow vehicle but wont return to center, it just turns to the far lock and jams there .
wheel alignment is perfect on the front end as had it on the alignment machine.
Am wondering if combo of 18 inch engine setback, shorter wheelbase and tight track lock trear diffy makes the thing quite directional and it wont return the front end to straight on ?
I have used tow bars all the time on the farm trucks for years and never had them do sonething like this.
any thoughts or ideas out there ??
