harsh pull to left at low speed after lift

[Jc12]

Hey guys so i just finished my 3 day endeavor of putting in LC coils and eibach adjustables (each set at highest level).. after replacing several sevvvvveral links, bolts, and nuts i have everything back in place, I am scheduling an alignment but is it normal for the vehicle to pull so much to one side.. when driving around 20 mph if i let go of the wheel it wouldnt take long to have me in the other lane.. thoughts? thanks!

Yeah its normal that when you completely disassemble the front suspension it gets a little out of place when you put it all back together..

Get yer' alignment already.

Just did my lift and had a little pull. Hope you didn't set your shocks on the highest. If so expect cv boot leak. Alignment should get you straight.

So I am definitely leaking at the boots. I am goin to put in the 1" diff drop. I haven't yet had time to inspect the axles to see if the boots are torn.. Could it just be leaking and will be solved by doing the diff drop. If not do you recommend replacing the boots or axles. I get the boots for 20-30 a pop or else whole axle (new) for 100 each.

Is this safe to drive?? I couldn't find any tears in the inner boots.. The outers are dry

I doubt the diff drop will change anything, I ended up not even installing mine, it's the alignment since you took off the links. you might wanna change boots, but it should be fine until you do.

The diff drop will not change you pulling issue, an alignment is a must after a lift.

As far as the CV grease leak. If you don't see any holes, it leaks from the boot being pulled from the new lift. Some do, some don't. Try re-clamping your boots like I did when I http://www.toyota-4runner.org/3rd-gen-t4rs/90980-stretch-your-cv-boots.html

I installed my differential drop,dropped bilsteins to lowest setting and new fasteners for boot, problem fixed. Reused existing boots since the weren't torn.
