hi guys i just picked up my brumby the other day and ive noticed if i turn the wheels to the right the right one scrubs but not the left.... and if i take off a bit quick the right tyre scrubs again even in a straight line..... grrr... i wanna lift it but i cant find any lift kits and the apparently the bloke on here that does em his mum is crook.... so if i can figure out whats going on i might be able to sort it out before i lift it...

cheers brumbybear

a front wheel alignment candidate, but that ain't worth it unless ball joints and tie rods and rack ends are in good order. Castor rod bushes, anything bent?

im getting under it this arvo and going to go over it all i reckon.. Mmmm i hope it isnt any thing too serious...

more than likely its those horrible plastic mudflaps on the front pull em off and see if there is any difference

otherwise its the plastic surround under the guard or as I call them the the mud collectors/ rust creators

two points to consider the bottom of the front of the guard and the bottom of the back of the guard where it bolts on to the body

in the red areas on the picture below is where I have had the most rubbing

thanx for that toonga ill check it out shortly when i get outside

Have you tried Crossbred Performance for a lift kit. Jeff sells them . If you look in the classified section, you should see some there for sale from Crossbred Performance.

well i have pulled out the plastic inner guards on both sides and it still scrubs.... plenty of clearance inside guards..... could a wheel bearing or CV be the cause of the noise??
