steering pull
my car was pulling/leading sorta from side to side sometimes ...
but then
i just got my lower balljoints replaces on both sides and a wheel alignment and it seems a bit better. but it still does a little bit? could it be because of the worn tires? or should i go back and complain? i also have to change the power steering pressure hose, will do that tonight... but is there another reason it pulls sometimes? or did they **** me over?
thx

if the tires are worn funny then replace them that is gonna make the car pull also check the tire pressure and make sure its not low

you talking about on the back of the pump or the steering box its self ? if you mean the pump your better off to take the pump off and change it , if your talking about the steering box we use a open end wrench on it works just fine

are you replacing the hose ???? if so just cut it off and use a deep socket and take it off with an extension ...works every time
i know its not the "correct"way of doing it but it does work
