Started having problems with the car, when i start accelerating it jerks forward and when i let off the gas it jerks back, like a loose automatic transmission hard shifting. i had few different motors/trans in the same car and it did the same thing with all of them; all mounts are new as well.

it seems like something clicks in and out, so i changed all suspension bushings and ball-joints and the problem persists. nothing seems loose in the suspension, everything is stiff as it supposed to be. i ran out of ideas what could it be

also after getting alignment done (before and after changing bushings) the car has a bad caster on the front. when i drive the car the steering feels really loose and the car goes all over the place on about 50mph+

any ideas? except junking the car

 

man im having the same issues idk wat it is im thinking my frame may be tweaked or somehting because my right front tire is sitting toward the fender a half inch more then the left tire idk wat it is but im trying to find some info on this as well maybe lower control arm is slightly bent idk car's never been in an accident either

 

my wheels look straight, but alignment says i have 0% caster on right side and -0.13% on the left

 

yea exactly i have straight wheels but thats because they did a alignment on it, does it pull left? idk when i get a chance imma inspect my lower control arms and uppers cause it just dont sound rite when my car has never been in an accident.

 

And there's the issue.

Caster for an Integra is just under +1*. (Mine was +0.7*, both sides, last alignment)

For it to be 0, or negative (yikes!), something is either bent (UCA, LCA), or the subframe has been shifted.

 

i don't think UCA would cause negative caster, possibly bent LCA but those looked fine when i had them out; but u never know. when i had bushing pressed in, it looked like they were not in all the way maybe that could make a change

bad caster would not cause that clicking either, what ever that could be

caster is fixable, i can stick to this diagram and educate ppl at monroe how to do it so they can get my alignment on the dot.
