You should not really genaralise as saying "WON`T" it does depend how much the links are worn and if one or both are really bad.

If you look at a drawing of the rear axle layout you will see that the links are on the same support as the wheel and wheel bearing, therefore when badly worn they CAN alter the tracking of the rear wheel, which results in the car being steered by the rear wheel as well as the steering, hence correcting by the steering having to be done while driven in a straight line!

Or would it of been easier to say when mine were replaced the wandering stopped.......?

We are only here to give opinions of our own experiences and should be left at that without criticism.
