Probably need the right side LCA and tie-rod done now too. If you have a swaybar, replace the bushings and end-links in that too.

Once your finished with the suspension fixes Lazlong posted, you will need an alignment done as well.

No, our cars are too cheap to have a LSD...lol

Anyways, I know that my car's right tire slips in heavy rains, left tire doesnt slip cos im in the driver seat.
But ever since I changed new tires, I havent slipped since.

Re: pulls to the right 03 civic lx

ok, today i noticed that there is a vibration/ wheel hop at low rpm with loss of traction and when u get up in the 5k+ rmp there is a grinding. idk what side is sliping but it pulls to the right. new tires and i checked it all b4 winter so idk what the issue is. engine mounts are poly. hope i dont need to rebuild the trans it still ***** fine and the clutch is good. hard to say too much snow to get under it right now just trying to get an idea of what to look for or if i need a new trans.
do u think it might be a drive shaft is getting striped? loosing teeth?
