on the extreme, a bad CAB will allow for play of toe (left and right angular play of the wheel, someone correct me if I got it mixed up) which will cause the wheel to point outward when you brake hard- I know that from experience in a friend's maxima, the right CAB was GONE and when I would brake the car would do a violent pull in that direction. A very dangerous situation indeed.

I am having a pull like that when I step on the brakes also, but mine pulls almost every time the suspension loads and unloads over bumps. Only thing is, I just put in new control arms with ES bushings like 2 months ago. I had ES in my last control arms, and they never did this.
