Last spring shortly after buying the Jeep we towed it from central Oregon to Moab Utah. I have a proper tow bar setup that is level with the motor home and has a supplemental brake set up.
Now to the issue. 3 times during this trip we were in a parking lot turning hard, driving slow and the Jeeps front tires decided not to follow the coach. I would have to jump out, start the Jeep, straighten the tires, and then get on with the drive. It’s not a good thing to be dragging your toad!
I have done some research and I have found little on the forums about a problem like this. The only info I have found makes me think it may a castor issue. The Jeep came with a 5 inch lift and I have no idea if it was realigned after the lift install.
I have an appointment Wednesday to have the alignment checked. It steers straight and the tires are wearing evenly.
Any input on this would be appreciated.
