I need to put spacers on alloys on the back of our car, just a few mm, there's a bit of rubbing under load.
Do I need to do the front as well, is it important that the wheelbase is square?

no need to add to the front as well, many vehicles are a different track width at each end
Thanks, I have done only the rears.
I expect it is a symptom of how suggestible the mind is that I half expected understeer and now feel it.
Commer PB van springs to mind. And yes, I know I'm showing my age again :-)

Had one as a transporter when I was racing motorcycles in the late '60s.
It wasn't the best handling vehicle I have ever driven...
Chris
nonsense, but you did need a pillion to hang out of the sliding doors to hold it down on bends
:-)
I actually bought it as scrap, MOT'd it with no problems, then used it as my only transport for two years.
The only thing that went wrong was a water pump failure that caused the fan blades to start hitting the radiator. I removed the blades to get home; the water pump was the only non-service item I replaced.
I was regularly travelling from the SE to Brands, Snetterton, Thruxton, Cadwell and Oultoun Park ect, sometimes with three bikes and half a dozen people in it!
