so before i got the alignment done it pulled ever so slightly to the left...

after it drives perfectly straight... but when i stomp on it in 1,2 or 3 it pulls to the right.... enough that you need to turn the wheel maybe 5-10 degree to keep it going straight...

i'm wondering what causes this?? my guess would be tires

imported_BoOsTd

torque steer? :P heh



arnt u geting that master kit?

Whiplash

torque steer would pull to the right..shorter half-shaft

punkindrublic

ya exactly... torque steer would pull the other way since the drivers side drive shaft is the longer one...

i am getting the master kit as well... my bushings are shot... but why wouldn't this have happened before....

i guess after i get the master kit in and new tires we'll see

becasue the going to the left would counter act and make it go straight

imported_BoOsTd

you know your gonna have to get another alignment after the master kit install.

so the one you just got was a waste of money no?

punkindrublic

yes and no... the alignment was way out and my snow tires were getting eaten up... and i didn't wanna put on the summer tires just in case it does snow again

i'm gonna be picking up a camber kit probably in a week or two so i'll get the alignment then....

shlammed

shouldnt u have got the alignment after putting in new bushings?

shlammed

nevermind i didnt read the whole thread
God im lazy

punkindrublic

yes you are

hey rick if your putting a bushing kit and camber kit on do it all at the same time and put the tires u plan on driving with on aswell
every change in suspension will result in some sort of aligment change.

Rick ... maybe your tranny is fubared and not properly transferring power to each side...

if there is a slight slip in one side it wouldn't be noticeable unless you strompped on the gas in a gear that changes speed quickly (ie a lower gear as mentioned....) just something to think about my car pulls to the left.... tranny will be replaced soon so we'll see where it stands...
