Has any one had a problem with alignment issues. I took my truck in and they said the pull to the right was a tire pull and i would need 2 new front tires. I recently had got into an accident, but they insist that it is a tire pull.

I know many here have heard me say this and already know what is going to come. Have your truck tires Road Force Balanced. They measure the variance in each tire and place the tire to where it will run and push/pull (depending on your physics background) in a straight line. It will help the front end alignment a great deal. I know it help mine with a slight pull to the left, now straight as an arrow.

First thing, cheap and easy test. Jack up the front of the truck. Turn both front wheels and make sure that you don't have a caliper sticking. It is not uncommon to have a caliper slightly sticking and cause a pull. If it's not, then do like chief said and get a road force balance done. If it continues to pull, go to a completely different alignmnet shop and have it checked. A lot of these shops don't calibrate their machines and can actually do more harm than good.
