does anyone know if a wish bone off any other civic will fit into my ek9.. i have a problem my car is pulling like **** to the left under acceleration and veers to the right when i let it off..the car was nicked and when i got it back off the cops the left wheel was puncured..and since then i've had this problem..dont know wat it is all bushes are ok..so think it might be a bent wish bone..as its very hard to tell if theres a twist or kink in it..sorry for the bla bla .......
 
Go in and have your tracking checked it should show up then if something is bent. might be a damaged track rod end
 
Cheaked the track rod end's in doing so I replaced the drivers side one. Had a good enough look around. And jotting looks out off place. And as the wish bones are not straight pieces of metal is hard to look out for a little bend or something...cud it be the sub frame. Are the wish bones on the ek4 sir the same as the ek9?????
 
I imagine the EK4 is the same. Is there any play in the ball joint? I can source you a wishbone off a EK9 if needs be. Just drop me a pm. but I wouldn't be totally convinced the wishbone is the problem. You could try taking measurements off the good side from point to point on the wishbone and compare to the side you think is damaged.
 
Also check your engine/gearbox mounts could be a long shot but think I remember some one on here saying about there car pulling to one side under acceleration due to a broken mount. And id check the suspension out on that side.

Gonna have another look after the weekend. Put it up on the ramp. Then after that gonna get the 4 wheels alined in a place done wit a comp which will give me mesurments b4 and it's been tracked and c does that shed any more light on it. My head is wreaked now.
 
all you can do there is what vtec6000 said have the wheel alignment checked and adjusted and tak it from there.possible something is bent hard to tell with eyes if its only slight.
