    5 lug problems. Need help.

    Ok so I started my 5 lug conversion today and did the front. After I put everything together, as I was test driving it, as i turn it has a hard thumping noise, could that be cause my outer tie rods were really stiff after they were tightened or I have the wrong driver side axle. I have the all prelude setup. I need help to solve this problem so I can drive my car perfectly fine, thanks.

        Pad impressions on your rotors? Is the noise rotation or constant?

            did you swap the outer tie rods with the prelude or swap your accord tie rods from left to right? the tie rod ball joints are a oppisite from acoord to prelude.
            so if you didn't swap the outter tie rods it will rub the wheel on full lock.

            "Yea as I'm turning n then when I let it go to go back straight it does it harder then while turning"

            this statement makes me think its not a tie rod issue but an axle binding

            once the wheel is tight it holds the rotor to the hub so no screws in the rotor would not be an issue.

            what did you use for lower control arms?

              I bought the. From a member here but there our control arms just drilled out to fit the prelude lower ball joint

                Do the prelude outer tie rods even fit our car?
