When your front wheel goes up or down with bumps it accually steers the tire in or out because of bad steering geometry. You can get this out of most vehicles by adjusting the height of the tie rod end. This applies to vehicles with independent front suspension. I will be different on things like power wagons. It will steer the front tires on bumps because of how the drag link comes down from the steering box. The closer the pivot points are between the steering and suspension points the less the bump steer. John
