    Default One wheel drive

    Hey I got a question. I have a trike that's one wheel drive and pulls hard to the right. It's tiresome to use the right hand to fight back. Does anybody know if a steering dampener would help this issue?

    Steven, in alignment terms that is called torque steer, yup even from the rear

    If you bisect the thrust angle front to back the rear may push from off the center line or the thrust angle

    With cars you can adjust the back end, bikes not so much

    I dunno for sure

    I have one on the front end of my Freewheeler, it helps with the shake in the front end

    You may try a bit lower air pressure to compensate

    Is it pulling to the drive side ? I would guess so

    It is pulling from the drive side. I know the steering stabilizers help out with high speed wobbles I just didn't know if it would help with a consistent pulling on the bars.

    Yeah, I dunno

    I would try a bit lower PSI in the opposite rear tire this could plain it out some

    Yeah I'll give it a shot see what happens. Maybe if that fails I can put a really thick spring on the left hand side. LOL

    Coincidentally if I'm traveling down a road that has a High middle center and a side slope off either end, if I'm in the fast lane it'll alleviate some of the pressure because the trike is tilted to the left.

    If you're saying there's two rear wheels and only one drives, then you have no differential correct? If thats the case I've seen two trikes built that way and neither was successful for the very reason you describe. A steering damper wouldn't help in that situation.

    the answer to the question is no

    a damper is basically a shock absorber.. as in a car it wont "hold" the front end any more than it would hold up a car

    do you have a stock front end? or raked trees? any idea what the trail is?

    i anything has a diff in it, it is not one wheel drive

    i assume this is mostly on right side of the road / high way... try passing lane on the hyway or any place the crown in the road is to the left ... we can go from there ..

    with some "creative" wheel alignment......i'm talking stock car racing alignment tricks, camber caster and stagger, maybe you could get the pull out of there at a given power input. that said, some state reg's want the front wheel centered with respect to back wheels centerline w/in 1 inch....thats for trikes, bikes must be w/in also. they don't say anything about stagger, however enough stagger would affect the centerline figures at some point. just a thought...

    I've been all over this form trying to find out how to post pictures from a phone. Haven't found one post yet that tells me what to click on. The screen I'm looking at doesn't give me any options to do anything but title, message, submit reply preview post.

    One wheel drive will always favor a circle direction. If no diff. Is wanted, then conciter a live axle. Although I don’t know what your working with , Live axle downfalls will be front plowing along with possible road wander. Sort of like welding the spider gears. It will also raise havoc on the axle as twisting and possibly braking it could occur. (Sounds like drug side effects).

    Yes as previously stated I have read these instructions. However it says to click on the editor toolbar above the text box. There is no editor Toolbar to click on when using a phone.

    Apparently all instructions on how to insert pics are done on a laptop. I must be the only guy on this form using an Android phone to post apparently. This is ridiculous, I even watch the video I have to insert the picture but it was also done on a regular computer not a phone. It gives me no options to do anything but post a title a message preview post and send that's it nothing else on the entire page when using a phone no options whatsoever. If I could post pictures you guys could help me out a lot faster this format is unlike any forum I have ever seen that I've used previously on the internet. It doesn't need to be this difficult it's not rocket science.

    Calm down Steve ,

    Try this; Reply to thread, scroll down to manage attachments, click on it, upper right ,it says add files, click, choose file, click, photo library or take photo, click on one, after you pick the pix click on upload on upper right, after it shows up, click insert inline , click on done, then you should be good to go. Hopefully.
