Default whats wrong with my steering?

it has been while here.

While ago, someone hit me on passenger side mainly my right front tire and thankfully there are little to no damage on body but the steering isnt right.

I took the my truck to the alignment shop and had them to re do the alignment since my steering wheel were slanted to right. They did the alignment job for about an hour and half. When it was done, it did pull to the right but it pulled a bit softer.

What should I look for bent arms or something? Im not an expert on steering or suspension area.

here is the result of alignment before and after.

BEFORE MEASUREMENTS

LEFT FRONT-
-0.1 CASTER
4.0 CAMBER
-0.64 TOE

RIGHT FRONT-
-0.2 CASTER
3.5 CAMBER
-0.53 TOE

FRONT
-1.17 TOTAL TOE
-0.06 STEER AHEAD

AFTER

LEFT FRONT
-0.2 CASTER
4.0 CAMBER
0.07 TOE

RIGHT FRONT
-0.3 CAMBER
3.5 CASTER
0.06 TOE


FRONT
0.13 TOTAL TOE
0.01 STEER AHEAD

Now, the bolded ones is in red bars on the paper instead of green that are unbold.

Have any ideas whats wrong with my steering system?

Sorry bro. I know nothing about steering and alignment setups. What did the shop say they think it is wrong?
