been getting frustrated by this for a while...
have a good hard pull to the right. Assumed alignment, so went and got alignment a few months back.
still had a hard pull.
about a month ago, found an upper control arm bolt was loose; tightened it.
got alignment done again today; all within specs. Still effin pulling hard to the right.
not a tire issue; rotated tires multiple times with no change.
checked, re-checked, and triple-checked tire pressures, all the same.
Now, on a previous alignment print-out I received, it showed the "thrust," which is apparently how "straight" the rear axle is to the frame, from what I could find online.
The last one I had, showed a thrust of 0.10*
this alignment shop didn't print out that, only toe, camber, and caster from the front.
Would a thrust of 0.10 degrees cause a hard pull to the right? this would mean something with the rear axle is effed up, correct?
