Default Wonky Yoke!

Anyone suffer from this problem?

My Yoke is leaning over quite noticeably to the motor side when it is just sitting there doing nothing.

Do I need to concern myself with this? Is there something I can do to counteract it other than just winding down the shock collars on the one side?

The shocks are currently adjusted equally both sides.

Thanks Jon

So basically it is OK just to adjust the shocks (and therefore ride height) on one side to compensate then? It just didnt feel like the right thing to do!

Thanks

I think I would remove the shocks and set the car on a flat surface like a glass table or an on road tweak board to make sure the chassis is not tweaked. Then make sure all the shocks are mounted in the right points.

Glue a brick on the side which is highest, that should sort it!

Or lead weights, 'much more' do nice ones, or.... do what Pigde says, he should know what best... you'd think

A brick is definitely the way to go.
