Eurosport vs. Autotech subframe?



The back arm on the left was down just under an inch, I went ahead and cinched 
it up...  Then, the car would pull to the left...  Like a dummy, I did not 
make the connection for some time.  Then it finally dawned on me what the 
problem was.  I took off the bar, and bent it as much as I could back to where 
it should (my car has never been in a wreck, so I used the car as a guide).  I 
could not get it exactly where it should have gone (pretty stout), but the 
2/3rds reduction I made made a huge difference.  It felt better (I know, damn 
empiricism), AND it no longer pulled...

The strange thing is the pulling was not consistent.  It seemed to depend on 
the angle, or surface of the road...
