Okay so I just got my new S13 put back together and something isn't right. My drivers side front wheel is signifigantly closer to the front of the inner fender well then the passenger side one. What is bent? Control arm? Something is up.. I dunno if this is relevant or not but when I was installing new struts and spring I remember I had a hell of a time getting the top bolt off the front driver side strut. Someone help me out.. I tried comparing the sides but nothing seems different? Also when I turn left sometimes it feels like the steering cuts out for a split second then resumes normaly. This feeling is coming from the passenger side rear wheel. almost like the lugs are loose and the wheel is moving horizontally on the studs.. Is this making any sence?

try taking a look at the tension rod, and where it mounts to on the front subframe. sounds like its a little outta shape. i noticed you said "back together" what happened to make you take it apart? the frame could have gotten bent....
