Hey 1AAuto. Thanks for the video. I replaced the front and rear struts on my 97 Pontiac Sunfire. However when I would turn left, the front right tire sounded like it was skidding. I got it aligned and it seemed to help, but when I turn left sharply enough it will still skid. I can't replicate this when turning right. Any ideas? Thanks.

@kooldude1992 You may want to check the inner and outer tie rods to see if they are working properly and not frozen. I would also check the ball joints too.

@1aauto Thanks for your response 1AAuto. The problem was that the alignment was knocked off so badly after I changed the struts, it caused a huge wear in the side of the front right tire. I only had driven it a single day and it did all that damage. The total toe in the front was something like -2.03. The tire is what caused the skidding.
I highly recommend anyone who changes their struts to get an alignment as 1AAuto suggested in their video.

i just got a question, is the floor jack underneath the ball joint preventing it from breaking something? just curious as i have a 99 chevy cavalier and need some new struts, pads and rotors

@expresstrucker1 It helps prevent the a arm from swinging down while you unbolt the top.
