pulls to the right then left

[roachjuice]

so i got my glht back on the road. going down the road under normal acceleration it pulls to the right then you let off the gas and it pulls to the left. it did this before a long time ago when i changed the clutch back when i had the 525 in it. but it doesn't do it as bad now. i kinda look like a drunk driver going down the road. any ideas?

Is everything up front tight - ball-joints, tie-rods, sway bars links?

Are your tires worn awkward or alignment out?

tires brand new. i haven't touched anything suspension wise except for the struts in the front. i'll have to get under that bastard again and see. but can ball joints really cause that? thanks.

whoa, u say u did something to the struts???? that'll screw up the alignment. and then there's a chance that the control arm bushings are junk.

shit so now coming home this morning i have this nasty wobble coming from the right front somewhere. i have no clue what the **** is going. about to just say **** it and rebuild the whole front end.

Time to change the front end on it! Polybushings all around and a good alignment and it will make a big different!

word. i really don't wanna take it apart again. i've only drove it for 3 days!!! lol well at least the little bastard still can spin the tires all the way through second.

Hell if you spend a day on the front end you are doing something wrong!
Took me about 5 hours to do brakes, breakdown remount and balance some good tires I found, do the tie rods, motor mounts, sway bar bushings etc. Change the fluids and bleed the brakes.
I am 16 so I am thinking you will be just fine and your car can spin the tires and take out a lot of cars around a corner at the same time!

i tend to take my sweet ass time doing things though. lol.

I also had access to the lift and it was a saturday so I wanted to get the car done!
Took me 5 days to get the right brakes. I put new front calipers on the car and I went to oreilly's hoping they had them and if they did they wouldn't kill me in expense...
11 bucks for 2 front calipers! AWESOME =)

turbo omni's are 5 bolt wheels. roacher, u must be using to many roaches cuz ever since u fixed ur car its more screwed up than when u started. its a lot easier to fix a car that breaks than to try and fix one that someone, not knowing what they are doing, dicked with.
