If an upper A arm was bent would it affect caster?

 

yes camber and caster

 

mine doesnt look bent.But on my right side i have bad caster.

 

could be your compliance bushing, the thing that looks like a radius rod-end bushing on the front lower control arm. Or it could just be that your car is a 92 and that the rubber bushigns are shot and in need of replacement.

 

any suspension component, if bent in the right/wrong way will affect caster, camber and toe, or any combination of either two or just one alone.

any pics?

 

I changed my front brakes to gsr and the person who did it didnt tighten my lower control arms in the front all the way down and for a while i was driving and when i got on my car it would pull very hard to the right.I just thought it was torque steer. Well one day after work i got on my car and the lower control arm came off, and i was stunk on the side of the road, good think i work at a honda dealership and the mechanics helped me. Anyways, do u think that could have bent something? my rim was up in my wheel well and i remember the mechanic telling me to make sure my coilover wasnt bent. Also my car always had bad caster do u think this could be from a bent radiator support? or a bent subframe?

 

anyone?
