Re: Are alignments on these trucks that hard to accomplish?

If it is a radial pull, after swapping tires it should pull the opposite way, in your case to the left. Not backing the tech here, but a radial pull could be the culprit. I agree with the previous posters about these trucks being easy to align. I had our mechanic align my 85 short and wide off the clock , he used the old string method and his eye and it drives straight as an arrow. Just give the front tires a swap and see if anything changes, or better yet have your service bay do it and go for a test drive, could be you just need a couple new tires.

How do you do the "Old Skool" string method for camber? I can see to set caster.
