DIY Alignment problem...help please...
Wuts happenin...anyways i got this problem...i kno ill get a lot of heat from yall for not doin this soooner but, i did a drum2disc swapp on my '96 EJ coupebout a year ago n havent aligned it... first off i gots it from Password for 2 bills...sounded gud at first...me n sum of my buddies at skool hooked it up along wit my teachers help...outside of a seized caliper and a pair of rusted trailing arms & rotors & bushings, i think tha left toe adjustment arm was bent...everything was all gravy till i drove it n it was drifting to the right real bad...last month i went to align it n all was gud till i had to adjust the toe on my left rear and the arm wouldnt budge to adjust...its off bout 1.5 degrees...any ideas of how to fix it??? please my tires are goin out due to tha horrible toe n no cash... thanx i appreciate it
I had pretty much the same alignment issue on my 94 Accord,but under different circumstances.I thought it might have been my trailing arm but after looking really closely,I found that the subframe where the trailing arm connects was slightly bent.I was probably off by no more than 3/32" and it prevented me from getting my toe to set back to zero.I replaced it and now it seems to be a lot better even though I haven't been able to get an alignment done yet.This may or may not be your issue,but it's something to consider.
thanks...ive talk to sum friends they say that i need to replace tha trailing arm bushings to get a gud alignment...but really does a trailing arm bushing make a car off by more than 1 degree?
i got a '96 EJ coupe EX...i dont have a picture of it but ill try to take a picture of it when i get home from work tomorow...my apartment is dark and tha lighting in my car port is really bad... but you cant really see if tha toe adjustment arm is bent unless u remove tha whole trailing arm off tha vehicle...however i am able to show you the worn bushings though...thanx for your time...
