I'm going to fit a castor kit on my next trip to Perth to try and stop the beast pulling left and scrubbing the left tyre out.

We've spoken about it before on here and it seems many others have had the same issue and fixed it...

Can anyone from Perth recommend a good place to have it done?

Hi Andrew,
One of the best places in Perth for this sort of thing is Glides in Newcastle street, Perth.

Andrew,
They have been around a long time and are experts in suspension problems.
Most of the manufacturers use them to sort out difficult issues. Well recommended.

I've been to the 'big two' (WAS & WS) in Perth with my GU and wasn't impressed with either. Not happy at all.

Glides could be well worth a visit if they're the mob I'm thinking of. They specialised in F100's / 250's / 350's alignment issues if memory serves me correctly so they're used to bigger stuff.
