Well, considering that the wind has been about for a long time, I doubt
it's changed at all other than maybe intencity at a given place and
time.

But as far as the '84 Westy is concerned, you might look at:
        1. Tires
        2. Front End Bushings
        3. Ball Joints
        4. Steering Box
        5. Alignment
        6. Wheel Bearings
        7. Driver's Drink ;)
