Weird pull on my 95

Lately i have noticed a weird pull of the front end (steering) that happens when my auto tranny shifts. It's like torque pull to the side. Can anyone shed some light on this for me?

i sorta had this earlier this week. it also would do it during acceleration. just check your tire pressure that could fix it.

Check:

Tire pressure
Inner and outter tie rod ends
Ball joints
Alignment
Tire tread wear

Rotate, test drive, repeat.

can also be the bushings in the lower control arms. The front bushing usually goes first, especially on the passenger side if you have a power steering hose leak.

i would check tires thread and inflation first, and then possibly alignment, depending on what happened with other, rotatin is also a good idea.
