31138, Help please, car not handling right
Posted by susafuss, Mar-04-08 03:13 PM
Ok i had a problem with my inner and outer tie rods in the front so i had them replaced today at the local pepboys and they also did an alignment afterwards and now the car drives horrible(pulls bad to the right).

I have also some adjustable rear toe control arms on the car that where just put back on cause the hemi-joint broke so i needed to replace that(so i know the rear toe was off). This though was put back on before the alignment so they should have fixed this.

here is a pic of the alignment report they gave me(does this look right?)


it seems like they are leaving alot of info off of this(i think they are screwing me)


thanks,
kevin

I look at it like this

If your car is pulling after. Take it back, make them drive it.

looks to me like they only did the front alignment.
Some cars rear alignment is fixed so maybe they only thought they were doing a 2 wheel alignment instead of a 4 wheel job.

and BTW is that the adj rear toe control arms from me that the heim joint broke on? If so how did that happen, where did it break,etc?
I've had mine on for a long time now with no issues so I'm curious.
I spent a long time calculating the forces exerted on that bar/joints and even included a 3-4x safety factor which should have been plenty to avoid any breakage even under the worst forces.
