    i put my number on tie rods since you said it will pull from side to side, wheel bearings make a roaring noise plus nissans are sealed units and barely ever need replacement, jack up the front end and shake the tire back and forth like you're making it turn right and left, shake it like that and if you feel any play then it's your tie rods. if you feel a little play then as you're shaking look at the outer tie rod and see if that is where the looseness is, if it's firm but there's still play in there then it's your inner tie rods. but all in all you should still balance the tires again while you're at it.

    do you guys think that the same answers would apply to my civic?? weird vibration under load starts at 70mph and will get worse as i gain speed,but when i let off the gas it stops instantly and pulls a little to the left. i replaced the clutch and right axle about a year ago and the left axle had been replaced about three years ago. also it seems like at low speeds if im in the gas and let off then get back in the gas it feels like the engine and tranny twists a little....could a bolt be missing on a trans mount to be causing all this?? any info or solutions will be appreciated and i work on my own shit under this big shade tree so taking to a mechanic is out of the question,thanks in advance.
