Default Hasport Mount and Axle problem

I was curious if anyone has any problems with hasport mounts and axles (h22 in EG hatch). My car makes a weird noise when I make right turns, no noise on left turns. Any help?

I do not know, how do I check this? It sounds like the noise is coming from the driver's side?

it could be the alternator rubbing the frame only when you make a right turn see if there is any scuffing . I had a sim. problem with my crx a while back.

Also, the car shakes REALLY hard between 1k-3k on acceleration.. and it shakes a little bit at around 80mph on the highway... Also, front has -2.4deg camber would that affect it?

Do you have an LSD tranny?

hard to say could be a number of things. Check clearince of the motor on the driver side of the car bake sure there is nothing rubbing or even close. check your tires to see if they are balanced as far as the vibrating goes it could be that something is out of balance. i hope this helps you out .

yeah, ill bet ur tires need to be balanced. that will for sure fix the 80mph vibrating.

what kind of noise is being made? a clicking sound or more like a rubbing/grinding sound?

sounds like an axle problem. take it out, measure it. and call the company back and tell them. they could have sent u one that is to long by 1/2 an inch or so.

hasport axles,.. I don't see any marks on the axle where the upper control arm would be rubbing, but it is -very- close.. A guy at work thinks it might be the CV joint.. Or it could be a longer axle.. It would be hard for me to get the axle off to test it though, I work a lot and stuff... Help! =[

It could be a number of things, but one problem might be a bad or damaged inner joint. If your vibration can be felt easily through the steering wheel, your camber along with some other problem may be causing the bearings to bottom in the inner joint.

There's usually enough play on the inner joint that your camber wouldn't cause this sort of problem unless there's some other contributing factor. Anything is possible though, even an incorrectly assembled axle. Please start by calling Hasport and maybe we can help to narrow the problem down for you. Make sure you tell them you do not have an LSD tranny.

Think I might've figured out the grinding noise, found out the dust shield for brake pads/rotor was bent a little, need to lift it up and bend it back, hopefully it'll get rid of the noise. Shaking is pretty bad still.. Will try to figure that out.
