Car pulling right on exceleration..... Bad axel, hub, etc.?
So just like it says. Everytime i excelerate quickly my car will pull hard to the right. Almost feels like there is no power getting to the driver side wheel. Its been doing this for a while. If i make a sharp right turn there is no clicking but a howling combined with a thuding sound. I just put in new (refurbished) axels maybe 8 months ago, seems too early for them to go out. wondering if anyone has an idea. Cuz i got nothing. Thanks!

if it is unswapped, you have un equal length axles. and i would attirbute it to torque steer.

i know this may seem like a longshot, but this happened to me once, it was actually that one of my tires was low of air, almost a 20 PSI difference between the two tires, check pressure on both to see if they are equal.
i know this kinda seems stupid, but it might be the answer.

I had the same problem with my EG6, right after i would shift or accelerate, the car would jerk to the right pretty bad....when i was changing the alxes, one of them practically fell apart as i took it out, the bearings were destroyed...also the LSD was not working...
soon as i installed the new ones the LSD was working again, and the car no longer pulled to the right.

probaly low air in the right tire (passenger) accompanied with torque steer...shorter axle puts more torque to the ground due to its short length and absence of fatigueing or twisting...
get LSD and AIR.
