my car is being a pain in the *** to drive...i could be driving in a str8 line and press the gas and hold the steering wheel str8 and the car will move to the right and if i let go of the gas it will whip it back to the left... and if it change lanes it will tend to whip me to which ever way im turning... the car is dropped with drop zone springs..any help would be appreciated thx

 

check for worn components and then go get an alignment. or keep it as is and get in that miiiiiiike jones video!!!

 

lmao...well im gonna go take a look right now for worn bushings and i just got an alignment

 

Yeah, something is definitely worn or broken to be causing that.

 

its the bushiing on the drivers side..its worn to ****..like theres nothing in there lol

 

Yup, that would cause the described behavior.

Loose bushing, accelerate, wheel moves forward, steers car. Back off gas, wheel moves back, car steers back the other way.

Time for a full bushing inspection. Replace any cracked / excessively worn bushings, get car aligned, see how it feels then.

 

so how hard is it to replace them? do they just pop out or i need to press them out and do u recommend any brand bushings?

 

Press needed for most of them, to my knowledge. The large trailing arm bushing either needs a special tool, or the entire arm removed from the car to go under the press.

OEM, Mugen ($$$), or any other name brand with hardened rubber.

Avoid polyurethane.

 

alright thx for everything u answered all my questions..im a noob when it comes to suspesion

 

im having the same problem right now too. i just came off a little wipe out and have been working my car back to health. i changed the front left lca, left axle, left lower ball joint. i came to later see the rear lca was bent to crap also. so i changed that out..just the arm not the whole control arm..that one doesnt really look bent. I didnt change the upper ball joint or camber arm on that left side..it didnt look bad. i installed some PIC coils. went to get "aligned" but it didnt fix the swirving..it helped it but didnt fix.

 

its still kinda slow to respond..and it does tend to wander...OR if im coming out of a curve, it doesnt go back straight but rather stay until i pull it.....ANY help or answeres???

 

1) Bent suspension components mean the tie rods should be inspected, as anything strong enough to bend an LCA could have messed them up.
2) Start a new thread detailing their condition. More people might jump in to answer.
3) Post the alignment sheet, so people can see how the car sits now.
4) Be a little patient. 3 minutes between bumps is a bit hasty.
