Ok, a problem began witht he a shaped wishbone on the drivers side front suspension. The bushings in the wishbone went bad, and one day, i was driving, and came towards a stop, when i let off the gas, the steering wheel started jerking violently, the car didnt jerk to much, but it sounded like my front drivers side wheel was going to come off..

Assuming it was bad bushings, i pulled the bushings off of my extra junked teg of same year/model, put them on, and went, The steering wheel is now a little turned left when going straight now, the car pulls to the right a tiny bit, and again, when ilet off the gas, the same violent jerking of the steering wheel.. I am baffled, and worried, i dont want to be driving my car then suddenly my wheel comes flying off...

I thought the bolts were very tight, however when i pull and tug on the wishbone, it still moves a tiny bit.. Could this bethe problem with the steering???thanks

PS. car is a 91 integra LSS

 

Did you torque the bolts down to spec, or just until they "felt tight enough"?

Also, the bushings on the junked car may very well be crap as well.

 

Bolts were torqued tightly enough, i believe its the ball joint, the bushins on the junked teg were like new, they only had like 30k miles on em. When the car is jacked up in the air a bit or on the ground, by using hand force on the wishbone the wishone moves at the ball joint, as if it wasnt tightened enough, but i believe that the ball joint is bad because the bolt was tightened with a impact. I think its just a bad ball joint .. hopefully..

strange enough, drove the car for about 2 hours today, the problem didnt occur, but my alignment on my steering wheel is slightly off.. :wtf:
