Ok.... This just seems like a nightmare. A few months ago I purchased
1 x 82-02 Spohn Panhard Bar Mounting Hardware Kit (983) = $10.95
1 x 82-02 Spohn Adjustable Panhard Bar (Spherical Rod Ended) (103) = $200.00
Color Gloss Black
Material 4130 Chrome Moly
1 x 98-02 Spohn Lower Control Arm Mounting Hardwae (981) = $10.95
1 x 93-02 Bilstein HD Shock Package (Set of 4) (BILPKG) = $379.99
1 x 82-02 Spohn LCA Relocation Brackets "Anti-Squat" (210-S) = $65.00
Options Stock or Strange Rear End
1 x 82-02 Spohn Adjustable LCA's w/Spherical Rod Ends (203) = $275.00
Color Gloss Black
Material 4130 Chrome Moly
1 x 98-02 LS1/V6 Hotchkis Sport Spring Kit (1905) = $229.99
anyways..... recently I went to have my car aligned, they showed me the graph of my car and everything was within bounds...
so right after I drove it away the car didn't seem aligned, the next day it was unaligned and pulling to the left.... now if i shift it into a lower gear while driving (and the car pulls like it's correcting itself) the steering is perfect and on hard braking it shifts back to unaligned....... can somebody give me some sort of clue as to what the hell is going on!!!!

i have aligned a few f-bodies over the years including my own 02..it sounds like they adjusted your caster and camber via the lower control arm[the correct way to do it] and might not have tightened up your lower control arm bolts tight enough .[its happened to me before i learned, they need to be tightened with an impact gun.] worth a look ..go back to them and have them put it up on the machine to see where its out..
