Nizam's dancing 164

[Mastro Subaru Alfa Romeo Of Tampa <mastro@domain.elided>]

Nizam and all,

As far as the torque steer, the front end of a 164 is pretty simple.
There are the a-arm bushings which wear, and are rubber, which with age
will deflect more under heavy load, the strut bearing, which can do odd
things when it's worn out, and the top mount plate, which appears to be
very little trouble.

Switching to the urethane bushings helped mine quite a bit. The rear arm
bushing is large and soft. Mine was not perished, but crushed down quite
a bit. Most 164s that  drive at work feel mushy after Sofia.  

Cv joints in poor condition might also agravate the situation, so check
those. This would be extreme theough.

I'd check the front end rubber parts first.
