Default steering problem

ok ive just gotten my car engine replaced and suspentions changed (put back to stock hight).. and also taken my car to get wheel alignment done 4 times and at 4 different places due to my car steering to left and right...
ok when drivingit just turns to the left like physically the steering wheel turns to the left a bit and the car moves to the left and sometime the car moves to the right mattering on the road...
why is that and how can that be fixed
thanks

why the hell would you replace your "car engine"? Your "suspentions" aren't the reason why the car moves to the right sometimes either. Think about it. The wheels are connected to the steering wheel. When you turn the steering wheel to the left, the wheels turn to the left, right? And since they're connected, if the road curves to the right, the steering wheel turns to the right, and the car moves to the right. That's why. You can't fix it because it's not a problem.

first me telling you i changed my engine and springs and suspentions is just a a bit of info of what my cars had done to it.
and when not turning (GOING STRIGHT) my car goes to the left and sometimes to the rights.
i know this is a problem because i didnt have it before and other cars dont do that.

its also dependant on the kind of tires you have... some tires are more succeptable to wandering. If you've gotten a bunch of allignments already, i'd say its the tires.... how much tread do you have left? My lude was driving strange just as I was running out of tread, new tires fixed the problem....

its a pretty common issue with FWD cars a lot of hondas have it because the drive axles are not the same length, but it is mostly prevalent on some modded cars with more torque. I have it, but i only notice it if i go over a bump or hole usually. i think replacing some of those things mentioned above can help it.

maybe its the tie-rod ends... i have the same problem

does it jerk from right to left or anything like that?

just go under and check the outter tie-rod end to see if the bushings are shot, if not then its probably the inner tie-rod bushings or the tie-rod is bent

no fuckwad, you're the idiot. Even with brand new tires on my car, going over a large enough bump will make the steering wheel turn and...drumroll...make the car move.

And if it IS torque steer, which i doubt since he seems to be talking about going over bumps and the car moving (surprise surprise...), get a LSD. If you even know what that is.</TD></TR></TABLE>

ok ok IDOIt. its not when i hit a bump its when driving normal **** face... you think you know it by straigh away saying its not a fault well ******** it is....
First of all if you dont like what im posting then dont read it and reply.

Lets not turn this into a pissing contest...as of writing this I'm sitting in my office at NIST, pulling in about $35k. I'm 17. You work at an "integrated company" (what the hell is that?) that apparently doesn't know how to spell "service". Besides, I can't seem to find any company called SERICE SOLUTIONS. Maybe you're talking about this: http://www.can.ibm.com/services/selfservice, in which case your job is what? I didn't think so.

Actually, my dad died long before I got my job, so he didn't pay for it. I work in a roughly 40x60ft office, and I can sit wherever the hell I want. If you like, I can take a picture to show you. While I'm at it, would you like to see a pay slip? I doubt you have ever seen one with more than $25 on it in your life.

YOUR company? So now you're saying that at 21 you own a company? Maybe, being the owner of your "company", you could get around to spelling the name of your company right. And nice with all the e-thuggery...you know i'm really scared by that.
