I just got the wheel alignment done and then 2 new tires in front. After that when I took highway (Freeway), I noticed the cars steering pulling to the left. What are the common places to check.

One thing I know for sure that is bad is the Spring seat on my right front strut. I am planning to replace the whole strut with one from J-yard. Can that be creating the problem? Can a left BAD wheelbearing also contribute to this?

THANKS

 

Both might be doing it.
Also they might not have it 100% perfect either. I would take it back and have them redo it.

 

Thanks Tech,

Thats the fastest reply I have ever seen on this forum..... I will take it in for re-alignement on saturday and will update on the status.

 

I had a really hard time aligning mine. It took us over 2 hours to get it right. I think there was a very slight bit of play in the rack on mine. We adjusted the camber a little which I think also helped keep it going straight down the road.

 

Thanks Again,
My thought is that the bad top mount (Play in spring seat and mount) is compromising on the camber and is creating a probem. I will first fix the strut and then go from there.

 

It is possible. I would call them and tell them you have the problem and cannot get right back there. This way they may redo it for Free.

 

I did the spring seat on the right strut and it goes very straight now but the wheel is not at 12 o clock anymore. Well, thats not a big issue, I am gonna drive to the same alignement shop and request them to recheck/align it for me.
Again, THANKS FOR HELP

 

Your welcome.
