bump steer

[jake7420]

i have some bump steer going on under 30 when i hit bumps just on the passanger side aka ice in the road ### of all the snow here. but my question is could ball joints affect the parralism of the steering linkage to the lower control assembly. I think it makes sense that it could but just seein if anyone else has experienced this. and the it has been curbed on the drivers front before i bought the car. Could a bent hub do the same thing? not sure about that one.

i think bumpsteer is kinda normal your gona get it on stock springs an stuff. if you go stiffer i think it might take that down a bit. but thata my .02

no...your probably thinking of like torque steer, bump steer is different. its definatly not normal

Have you gotten the alignment done ever? or recently ? tow in or tow out increases bump steer.

I've got bump steer like crazy aswell. I've been aligned, but I don't trust 'em. I'm on Eibach street, and kyb agx. Is your car lowered? AWD? New tyres? I'm yes to all of the above, and I can feel it really strong. Do an alignment and let me know what turns up.
