    Hello.
    Something wrong with center of steering on solid and beam axles at Gavril D,H and Roamer. Shortly, if steering wheel is straight car will go left (you can see it on grid map using lines). Is there any way to fix it?

    It's better to make video, but game is 17 fps without programs. So, it's better to test ingame. (get any pickup with independent suspension and make it solid axle. You will see the difference)

    I suspect that you are experiencing torque steer, which is being made worse by the solid axle front suspension. Do the cars still turn left when you lift off the throttle and coast?

    that's because you need to set the steering center yourself, it will all depend on what leafs are you using, since the ground clearance will change. Many people seem to overlook the geometry of the suspension.

    Car goes left left at speed even with turned off engine.
    (Ah, what did i written? Better use example. If pickup with Solid axle accelerates to 50 mph and turns engine off (N gear too) it still goes left. Something wrong with center of steering)

    As I think, it is some kind of bug, because player needs not only choose part, but also find steer center. If it would be fixed, player can only choose part. (or maybe I am lazy man who can't find steer center for my solid axle Roamer, that's why this is bug :) )

    It's something that occurs with solid axles, when using a ffb wheel I find with solid axles I have to have the steering slightly to the right in order to go straight.

    It is not a bug, you are just lazy. None of the official configs use solid axle in the roamer, so if you care enough to make your own config, you should also care enough to fiddle with tuning setup.
    For standard springs just go about 28% to the right

    nothing is wrong, this is realistic. on solid axle vehicles, changing your ride height can affect the steering center. all you have to do is play around with the steering center slider in the tuning menu to get good results. the higher your truck, the more you'll have to change it from stock.
