Pulling to the right

[benztech82]

Hey all,

Got this after 3rd alignment attmept. Truck is pulling to the right, not crazy but noticable. I have 5100+ome coils, freedom uca's. Some cheap aftermarket lca's.
Pulling started after lift.
Any ideas ?

Check your right brake caliper, could be frozen and cause the pulling, especially since three alignments haven't fixed it.

I replaced brake pads just recently. All caliper pistons pushed right back inside the caliper. I don't see it being a brake pull issue. I did replace lower control arms around 6 month ago and I think that they are not build up to original spec. The thing is that before I had a spacer lift and truck never pulled to the side with those cheap lca's.

Why did you allow the tech to give you the truck with almost a whole degree of caster between both sides?

I'd check tire PSI and get those numbers a lot closer.

Tech told me that vehicle either was in accident or something and that's a second alignment shop. And i know that it wasn't pulling during 3 years that i owned it before the lift. I really think it has do with crappy control arms

Once freedom offroad arms went in caster went to higher numbers like it should, but there was still 1degree appart. Tech also told me that if he corrects caster to same numbers, camber is going out of wack.

The caster difference L-R is disturbing. I am not familiar with that brand, but both the upper and lower control arms are vital components and you don’t want to press your luck there. But, also, don’t forget that the rear axle may not be tracking straight after the lift. An adjustable trac/pan hard bar like this will correct it, if that’s the problem. Good luck.
