My 1993 opel kadett / astra has a strange front wheel problem. When you reverse the wheels lean tops in quite bad and when you go forward the come up straight again iv changed. Tyrod ends . Ball joints and control arms . Is this normal

I would suggest to swap the rear tires to the front and see if that helps.
It could also have a shock absorbers problem as well.

Not even sure who makes those cars but this should hopefully help you

Please take a moment to rate this solution.. thanks

SOURCE: Can you replace the lower ball joints in the control arms

You can replace them seperately,but they need pressed out and in. Other methods of removing and installing likely will damage control arm.

SOURCE: front wheels lean in at top

You should have the twin arm suspension. there's just a few things to check. inspect the pivot bushings on your lower torsion rods(from the axle back to the frame), check the upper and lower ball-joints. and last check the wheel bearings.

SOURCE: steering sticks when turning

sounds like either the camber or caster is off on your alignment or possable you got your steering gear box adjustment too tight .. this will cause it to not return to center.. thanks and holler if you have more..
