[jdtractor]

so had my 31x10.50 on today installed a camber caster kit, and a new upper ball joint on my driver side had a line up and tires installed truck is pulling to the left makes a grunting sound out the left side when you turn power steering "bouncing" in the steering wheel when you turn the wheels at a dead stop what the crap gives? any ideas? i dont know if the lift shackles i put on the back has anything to do with it, but wasnt doing this when it left to go for a line up.

The shop that did your alignment may have done something wrong, I would take it back and get them to woranty the work and redo it. I do mine myself, ive seen to many techs not double check there work and an adjustment to one side can throw the other side off just a bit. I have also seen many set the toe first and that should be last as caster camber adjustment will change the toe.

yeah i sent it back this morning, pulling to the left came from the tire leaking down they never checked the bead for leaks, and the power steering jumping came from them lifting it up and turning the tires with the engine off i presume, i dont normally use this shop but my regular shops alignment machine was down and they was waiting on a tech to fix it, after i installed the new camber caster kits i needed a line up bad so i took it to this shop, they are fixing the leaking tires now i swear its hard to find a good tech these days! thanks for the response i was pretty heated when i got my truck back and they closed when i left!

The power steering shuddering was pretty common on these, when I worked in a shop I had an adaptor that went on the power steering reservoir that allowed me to use my vacuum pump to purge the air out of the system. It was easy and quick, but I was the only one in the shop that did it. Glad it all worked out for ya!
