I wonder if anyone else has had this issue.

I replaced all of my bushings with the Daizen kit, tie rods, ball joints, and went to get the car aligned. Guy comes out and says the car is going to pull to the right because the caster on one side is 7.4 and the other is 8.

He goes on to say that our caster setup is similar to the IS platform with that caster stud sticking out of the floorboard. If the car has ever been in an accident the stud (or control arm) could be bent affecting caster.

With bad bushings I had no problem with my car pulling to either side. With the Daizen kit it pulls to the right.

..and the passenger ball joint is clunking 2 weeks later... but that's another thread altogether....

Not a single person eh? Maybe the alignment shop was full of crazy?

Man, Alignment shop is full of crap. Bastard lifted my car up using those hydrolic hoist from the front only and it bent my side skirts. Luckily they're ABS Plastic. It did leave some creases on the paint though. Then they went and lift it up from all point. ******* told me why I'm tripping over a scratch.

They did my alignment and the steering wheel was crooked. I came back and Told him that it's crooked the car don't pull left or right. Just make the steering wheel straight. Dumb *** switched the entire left wheel with the right wheel. So now my tires are pointing in the wrong direction. He said that it might pull to the left cause my wheel balance was off. I drove the car and the steering wheel was still crooked. Car goes straight. Never going to a gay *** alignment shop again. I'm going to go to a performance shop like bozo's garage or signal performance.

Most alignment shop guys don't even put on a steering wheel holder to keep it still.
