B7800 pulls to the left

plaindave · Oct 7, 2003

Was out moving some rocks for a retaining wall today and I noticed that my B7800 was pulling to the left when I let go of the wheel. Didn't matter if the bucket was loaded or not.

I never noticed this before - maybe it's always done it, but is there anything I should check out? Already checked the tie rods and toe in.

Check the pressure in all tires.

Left brake dragging ? I am not sure. Maybe if you went on the other side of the equator it would pull the other way.

If it has power steering it could possibly be a centering adjustment that is needed.... I had a tractor that would make a right turn if you let go of the wheel because of the pressure valve was not functioning properly and putting all the oil pressure to one side......

Tire pressure is good, didn't think of that the other day. Have to call the dealer and ask about the centering adjustment and the possibility of a brake dragging.

Other than that I'm stumped.

Thanks for the input.
