So I take it you have a stock torque arm? One more question.........Is your car lowered? Other than that it is very possible you have a bent hub. What made you think of a bent hub?

i had my hubs checked today. they all were fine. i do have a funky tie rod end on the pass side. Torquing the motor on the rack, the only thing we could find was my exhaust grind/taping the bottom of the car. Guess ill find out more when something snaps.
