On Saturday my dad and I changed the front two struts on my sister's 02 civic. After we put the new struts on and after a test drive, I realized that the car goes straight but the steering wheel is slanted. The car doesn't pull to the left or right so I doubt the toe settings have been changed. I don't believe I made adjustments to the steering rods either.. does anyone know why this happened?
Is there a quick fix to it?
The only drastic thing I did that involved the steering links was that we tried using some plumbing pullers to remove the strut from the ball joint thread. In the end we went to autozone to rent a ball joint seperator and got the job done. Other than that we didn't turn anything.
P.S. the struts were changed to replace stock ones which both broke after hitting a deep pothole.
