The Front Wheels
Wobble? Then Repair
Them Before Accident

my front wheels wobble" is a com
plant that thefowner frequently takes
to the repairman for rectiication.
Sometimes the remedy is simple, but
often the repairman is stuck. After
removing all play from the wheels and
persists. it may be found in the
springs. This is particularly true Of
cars with semi-elNptic front springs.
One Cause Of webbing
When the front wheels strike q
bump, the springs not only may be
detected, but the axle itself may turn.
the latter movement shortening or
frightening the action Of the steering
linkage sufficiently to produce the
the wheel rapidly first olfk way and
then the other would give. This de-
fleet will not cause much difficulty at
iordinary speeds but will make the car
almost unmanageable at higher speeds
especially if the roa is not very
smooth. The remedy is to use sitter
main leaves in the springs.
If the wobbling tendency occurs on
a car not so equipped. it often may be
cured by fitting the axle forward or
backward slightly, thus altering the
angle of the king pins, about which
the wheels swing, with the ground.
Turning the Axle
Which way to turn the axle or how
much is a matter of experiment. Why
this should cure some cases of wheel
webbing cannot be satisfactorily ex-
planned as, so fara as is known, no one
has attempted to analyze the effect it
produces.
Hard steering as well as increased
tire wear may be caused by the fact
that the wheels do not toe in the cor
rect amount. Somewhere between
one-fourth and three-eighth inch is
usually correst. Hard steering on a
Ford may be due to bent radius rods.

ROAD test TO

Economy Truck in addition to the

days have passed. Big production
schedules have eliminated the road
test until now the big automobile fac
tory that practices road testing is the
exception rather than the rule:
manufacturing methods no doubt
make a road test less essential than
formerly. the fact still remains that
the best way to determine that an au-
tomobile is all hat it is supposed to
be is to give it a road test. And that
is, put it out or the road and make
it perform. For obvious reasons this
is particularly true of trucks"
"For h a reason We are glad to be

The same policy applies to new

have had a ride in a Liberty car a
short time previously and been won
by the difference Of its riding and

The Grand Forks Motor Service

of the qualities which attracted the
