Different brand and length of front end links. Bad thing

jayweezy · Fri, Sep-03-2010, 09:14:19 PM

Hey guys, i made a thread about how my passenger side Tein end link on my coilovers broke about a month ago. I contacted tein and was estimated about a 3 month wait just for the end link so i said screw it and ordered the adjustable end link from Turner Motorsports. So after the install i have the tein end link on the drivers side and the turner one on the passenger side. The turner end link seemed signifcantly longer then the tein even though I adjusted it to the shortest setting. Now when i drive my car pulls to the right. I dont know if its hurting my car with different lenghts and putting different load weight or whatever on the car. Would a simple alignment fix it? Thanks guys

Call me crazy but I don't think that's a good thing and probably the reason why your ride is pulling to the right. Was it pulling to the right before?

That is 100% why the car is pulling. Switch out the other one also when you can.

yea it was pulling to the right already, but now its pulling a lil more haha. i know when you adjust or change anything suspension related (fcab,rtab etc) youre suppose to get an alignment. i dont know how significant the change would be or if its a bad thing. if i did get an alignment and they made it straight, would different lengths still cause a problem?
