Question about my stang

[dlaul01]

Hey guys quick question j/w if anybody knows. I got my car and i know it was wreked before repainted on the one side looks fine and good but. Im kind of worried i dont know if i need a new tie rod, or maybe just a alignment or my frame is messed up.

Heres whats happening, i know i need brakes got them and rotors got them will be putting them on. when i put my car in revers "its a 5 spd" and go to cut the wheel backwards it wont go all the way the first time its stops like have way. It will only do this sometimes and also when i drive my car it feels liek great then it will pull real hard to right right sometimes. The wheel shakes as well making me think i might need an alighnment... Does anybody have any suggestions?

the shifter or the wheel?

i would take the car to a shop, and have them check the wheel bearings, tie rod ends, and control arms. unless you feel confident and know what you are looking for.

call around and carry it to a local trustworthy front end shop they should tell you everything you need to know without all of us guessing. i have one in town that will diagnose any problems with front end give an estimate to fix for free.if i have no problems he aligns my front end for $25-$35

The wheel not the shifter, around here these shops are not cheap at all

call around and find a place that will do an inspection for a decent price. talk to friends and get recommendations.

gear box or rack ,if rack e-mail have one for sale sounds to me like somethings going on it the gear box ,tie rods will not stop your car from making a full turn unless maybie a bent strut,take her to the shop and allways get a second opinion these guys work off commision,I know trust me daddys little girl hit a curb at walmart the other day checked everything out and changed the front wheel and off to t*res plus I went they called the wife said the frame was bent the sruts were bent and that they were gonna have to slot the towers to get her alined so I went up there guess what the estimate turned out to be 150 bucks cheaper, fram wasnt bent strut was though 350 to fix good luck

thats not a lie for sure. i havent been able to drive mine for 3 months cause when i would get one problem fixed and get ready to drive it something else would happen. If i didnt like them so much it would be gone.
