so i recently replaced my driverside axle and my passenger side upper ball joint and aligned my car and now something else is seriously wrong with my car.

Driving my car (1990 DA) it will drive normal for a while and then out of nowhere it will pull really hard to the right, like hard enough to yank the steering wheel out of my hand if i'm not paying attention. this lasts for about 3 seconds at a time and then stops and the car will drive normal again. does anyone know what could be the problem with the car? at first i thought it might have been something wrong with the axle that i put it, but now i'm pretty sure its not because all sounds/ noises that happen are on the opposite side from me. any help would be much appreciated.

Other info:
1990 Integra GS
Lowered on sprint lowering springs
tociko blues

Check the wheel bearing on that side, make sure brake caliper is mounted properly, check all suspension components on that side. 94

i checked everything out and nothing looks broken or abnormal. the only thing thats questionable at all is the right axle has a torn boot. could an axle cause this to happen?
also i realized that this happens more after the car has been driven for a while. when i first start it and drive it acts normal.

Check the CV joint under the torn boot, a bad CV joint can definatly cause your problem. 94

If the boot is torn, it means there is no grease in the CV joint which is very bad. Not only it affects your driving and screws up the axle completely, but could also kill your differential and you end up replacing the whole transmission.
Get that fixed ASAP
