i was fully expecting them to tell me that since i supplied both the wheels and the car, it was my responsibility to check and make sure it fitted before bringing it over to them
but, the fact remains, it was their installing something that didnt fit, and forcing it on that broke it, and they accepted that
Right, they're the professionals, they are responsible for checking for proper fit /clearance/design. They should've caught that & informed you. As far as pulling goes, is the
steering wheel straight when you let go of it?What I'm getting at is if the alignment was correct/wheel straight, drifting due to suspension/align change will often be accompanied
by the wheel not being straight when released. If the wheel is actually being pulled to the left and continues, something is dragging or bent. Are these different tires? Try flipping
them side to side, then see if it stops or changes direction. Oh, and I would be sure the bearing is not over-tightened, it's happened-even in the "good ole days". My dad sat on a
jury in the '70's, when someone tried to sue GM because front bearings locked up and snapped the spindle off their ElCamino. Problem was they just had that wheel pulled for
