Pulls right letting off brake.

2010 HHR and letting off the brake the steering wheel jerks a little to the right. I tried new rotors, brake pads and right caliper but same thing. When braking it's fine does not pull or anything just letting off brake after a stop. Ideas?

Install them at the same time to both sides



You can press in new bushings , I prefer the Moog K201285 problem solvers

And the "problem solver" control arms do not have the "problem solver" bushings, so don't be fooled. They may have stopped marketing them like this by now, but just a warning.

don't forget a front end alignment after installing LCAs

I used the problem solver arms when I changed out the junk chinese ones that made things really bad. The Moog problem solvers worked good(and still do) The cheap China ones wore out a set of tires in 3,000 miles...

Some of the "Chinese" arms are a couple of mm longer than stock, causing a 1 or 2 degree camber problem. I could not tell the difference by eyeball. Evidently, they "fit" other cars too.
