I was following a 56 plate Isuzu double cab earlier today. Couldn't help notice that it was crabbing worse than any old mini used to. Guessing it has had a hard life as it was a highway maintenance vehicle. They ought maintain their truck

Where the rear wheels don't follow the front wheels in a parallel line, so vehicle is sort of driving a little sideways. Like a crab, unless he meant it was swerving all over the place cos driver was scratching his crotch a lot ? :D

I remember when I worked in a garage mid 60's a guy came in saying when he braked the car wandered all over the road.
It had a beam front axle
We jacked up the chassis to see what the problem was, the wheels stayed on the ground for a while then with some creaking and tearing of metal the beam axle fell off the chassis.:eek: Held in place a bit by the steering, and the brake cables
He asked could we weld it back,:doh
That guy in the video may have a similar problem
