need help...
hey guys i'm looking for someone who can help me with a suspension prob i'm having. Almost everytime i go around a corner a little fast or accelerate fast the whole front end of my civic shimmys around. Its stock suspension and i want to know if this is just an alignment prob or something worse. thanks
not sure what ya mean about SHIMMYS around...
if the car wants to pull alittle when accelerating then its just the power from the motor cause its not a positrack, one wheels geting the power which can pull ya around alittle.
find a flat straight road and while driving kinda let go of the steering wheel... if it pulls over when ya let go then sounds like ya need a alignment. if it goes straight then its fine.... or maybe a tie rod is going bad and its poping around, it could drive straight sometimes and other times it could pop and throw your alignment off at times.
take it to a alignment shop and ask them for a free quote... and if they think its a alignment or a bad ball joint maybe.
i know my 94 civic has a bad tierod so it can sometimes pull over at times and drive straight at times.... but mines only slightly wore out. i had the alignment shop do their best....
