So I installed new struts all around on my 02 honda civic. After install it seems like the car doesn't want to move in reverse without forcing it to (kinda feels like the parking break is halfway engaged). And also when I reverse and turn my wheel all the way to the right, I hear something hitting on the passenger side (kind of like a caliper hitting the inside of the wheel sound). I have taken the wheel back off and inspected everything and I can't see any marks on anything that would tell me what was hitting.

Someone help please.

Did you use the correct struts? They are different between years.

Try lifting the front of the car and spinning the wheels, do they spin freely?

ya could have a sticking caliper or the struts they can only come from a 01 to 02 not a whole lot of options. and if ya bought them off ebay they say 01 to 05 but they only come off 01 to 02

Do you mind sharing what struts you purchased? I'm trying to find a complete strut assembly for my 02 Si. I'm looking for a normal, stock stance. Parts suppliers aren't very clear.

Issue was fixed. Turned out to be the front wheels were toe’d outwards really bad.
