Gonna put the front on stands, hit the brakes, then see if one wheel is harder to turn than the other after I release them. As for grease, I'm positive they pins are greased because I had put so much in there that I couldn't get the calipers to slide on all the way until I picked some of the grease back out.

Alright, jacked the truck up, started the motor, and worked the brakes... pumped them, held them, everything I could think of and both wheels had the same resistance after I let off the brakes. The amount of brake sticking to cause the truck to pull when the speedo needle isn't even off 0 would have to be pretty substantial... with the truck rolling in neutral, I don't think even my grabbing the tire could make it pull the much.

Ummm.... What tires are you running? MT's right? 30k with 50% left is awfully good, you need to do more burnouts! I've got 15k on my Coopers and though the traction is phenomenal, I don't think they have another 15k in them. I don't know what to say about your pulling, except it's gotta be something!?! Big help huh.

Same tires, always rotated every 5K with oil changes. Only reason I know the alignment is good is I know the guys doing it, I trust them, and they've shown me what they did every time. They wrote the specs for the alignments on a pad and brought it out to me.
