I've got a Steering "pull" issue --- and the reason I post is that is varies strongly.  Sometimes I'm just fine.  Often when braking, it pulls right, but sometimes left.

And sometimes when running, it will pull right, then left ... esp. after a bump in the road, no matter how slight.

I've no idea what could be causing this ... ball joint someplace?

Thank you for any guesses!

Balljoint, shot control arm bushings, worn/busted/missing sway bar links especially if it's only missing on one side. Have you had the car aligned at all?

Time to jack it up & do some look-seein'

Yeah ... wish time and a facility existed.

Pretty sure I had the sway bar links changed at the garage before I started dd'ing it ... need to check the receipt to be sure (and write it in the log book, lol).

Perhaps I can finagle some garage time from wifey's boss or daddy soon.

I had a car that did that & it was the tie rods were shot....

Thanks, Go... I'll try and have a look soon.
