hey guys. got an 04 hemi 4x4 with 66k miles on it. just had an alingment done a month or so ago and replaced my front right wheel bearing about a week after that. well it was still pulling to the right so i took it back in thinking that they might have messed up. well they triple checked everything and the alingment is perfect they said. my front left bearing is getting louder and im going to be replacing that here soon. is there any other reasone why it could still be pulling to the right?

 

As an alignment shop, they should be able to inspect it and tell you why it is pulling. If they can not, FIND another shop to do business with

 

thats what i was thinking too, just dont wanna pay again to have someone tell me they dont know what it is lol. i'll look around though. thanks weed.

 

Shops around here will give you a free inspection, tell you what needs to be replaced and then give you a quote on the repairs. At that point you can politely decline, used what they told you to buy the parts yourself and replacement yourself. Then bring it back to them for the alignment

 

yeah i guess it wont hurt to ask if they will give me a free inspection. just sucks, i hate driving a vehicle that pulls one way lol. its so annoying

 

Have you replace tires recently? If so could be a tire causing it. Easy way to find out swap the front w/each other see if the pull follows.

 

i have directional tires but i did swap the fronts with the backs, and it didnt make a difference.

 

I assume the truck has pulled since you bought it? Possiable wrecked by previous owner? Bent A-Arm?

 

yeah it pulled when i bought it, idk if it was wrecked the carfax came back perfect but i guess i can take a look when i take the tires off. i mean when they did the alingment it made it 10 times better but its still pulling a bit so it could very well be an a-arm or something.

 

You guys do know that all vehicles are made to pull slightly to the right in the event that you fall asleep at the wheel so the vehicle moves off the road and can wake you up by hopefully hitting rumple strips and not a wall. That's what I've heard anyway.
