A bit of pulling
« on: 27 May 2014, 22:41 »
Ok so I got a question my car pulls slightly to the left when accelerating let go pulls back to the right not much only about an inch can only feel this when it's in 3rd 4th and 5th can't feel it when changing gear just on the straight now I know I have one cv boot ripped not sure if that will make it pull but since I found the rip in it that's when I started feeling the pulling can anyone give me any suggestions or advice thanks

Cv should have nothing to do with it. Check the wishbone bushings.
