Default What would cause wheel jerk while braking and shifting?
I just replaced all struts with KYB GR2s and when I brake or let off the gas my wheel jerks to the left maybe about an inch.

Thanks

They weren't touched during the strut install and the problem is so profound that it's obvious something happened during install. Could it just need an alignment?
