Ive had a crabbing s2000 which would pull one way when accelerating and pull the other way when taking my foot of the accelerator. So Ive had my alignment setup, but was unable to get it fully setup due to seized camber and caster bolts! I have the measurements they have setup below.



My car still pulls for the side on/off the accelerator even after the alignment! Would this be because these settings are still out? And can the caster angle be adjusted?

Thanks.

 

You probably have a sticking brake caliper.

 

Sounds like a caliper to me as its exactly what mine done when it needed a caliper

 

Great! Another expense! Lol. If it is a sticky caliper are repair kits available for them?

And I guess a sticky caliper is causing uneven tyre wear on my tyres? Or was that just bad alignment that I had before I had it readjusted?

 

There are calliper repair kits available, go to trade section and ask for a quote. But before buying anything I would compare the brake pads (left set vs right set) to see difference. If your calliper is sticking, there should be more pad wears on one than the other.


You mentioned that you were unable to get it full setup because of the sized bolts. Personally I would sort that out first before looking at the brakes.

 

If be sorting out the sticky caliper first! Not safe having a binding caliper, and the geo is 'ok' for now.

 

No that'll be the alignment, though uneven tyre wear could probably cause the car to pull one way or the other.

 

As MB say's the GEO settings although out are not enough to give you any pull under power on and off, I'd be looking else where first, sticking brake, Tyre's, shocker, compliance bush, quick check look at the colour of your disc edge's to see if one is a different shade to the others,

 

Just checked the service history and the last service it had by honda (just over 2 weeks ago) the brakes were serviced. Had new front pads pads due to old ones being seized. If the brakes aren't in good shape I will be having words with honda...

The seized bolts is definitely an issue I will need to fix as some angles of my geometry are miles out still!

 

I've had tyres replaced now so tyres are ruled out for a cause of the pulling.
