98 S70 T5 Odd Wheel Alignment Problem S70 1998

Hi All,

A friend's 98 S70 T5 has developed a very odd alignment problem. The problem is actually a "PULL" problem while the wheel alignment is perfectly fine.

-When driving forward, the car pulls hard to the left and you have to fight it to make it go straight.

-When driving backward, the car pulls hard to the rear right (as if you are turning the steering wheel to the right).

As I mentioned above wheels were aligned and re-aligned with no solution. Wheels are perfectly aligned to within specs.

I'm thinking someone out there may shed a light on this problem.

Recent work done on the vehicle:

-Front shock changes
-Strut spring mount changes
-control arm changes
-stabilizer end link changes

All work appears to be done right...

Thank you in advance for your inputs.

-Kef
