FD pulls/drifts to right on acceleration
When I accelerate light to hard my FD moves to the right. I have rotated the tires around and have proper pressure in them. There does not seem to be any damaged bushings but surely its hard to tell at this point with out unloading the spring pressure. The wheel bearings/hubs have a little movement and it seems to be equal on both sides. Is there something know to cause this? The car tracks straight when driving.

Wheelspin;). |
Check toe links/trailing arms. My toe links became loose and the tail end was all over the place with acceleration.

Moves,.. as in, travels forward and to the right?? Probably something having to do with your front suspension or steering components?? Car can't just travel left or right (front-end) unless the wheels are steered in that direction. Also, check your tire pressure on both front tires.

The statement about the wheel bearings was incorrect. There is a small movement in each wheel from the rear tie rods. Its equal on each side. Its so small its hard to measure. It is coming from the outer tie rod ends. It would be there at any time and given that I don't think its the problem. Its under load the car goes right. I do need help with this and am open to your help here. Thanks

I'd go with evot23's suggestion, and check your trailing arms/toe links, as well as the hub bearings and passenger-side rear shock. There should be no discernable slop in the rear suspension geometry components. If your car tracks straight under normal driving and under braking, then it's obviously a rear suspension problem.
