YEP........... you cant win them all........... but you do seem to be on a loosing streak lately ! Hopefully that will change SOON !

 

LOL. Thanks.

More questions on the way...I think I'll start a new thread for them.

 

I suppose it should be common sense but I just realized that I had better get a look at the rear brakes while I'm at it. I hope the rear drums come off easier than the rotors did. Although isn't it usually the other way around?
How safe is a truck on nothing but jack stands?

 

Well...after replacing rotors, calipers, pads, brake drum hardware, R/F steering knuckle, upper control arm, lower ball joint, getting an alignment & moving tires around, it still pulls to the right. This really sucks.

 

Just wondering if they did a "Thrust" alignment. That's where they determine where each rear wheel is pointed and then align the front wheels parallel to the rears.

 

Just ad-libing a little, using common sense,
Both wheel have to travel in a straight line but account for minor technicalities such as TOW in, Camber etc.
If a brake drags on one wheel it changes the situation.
If a wheel bearing has an issue it changes the situation.
If something is loose it changes.
If the suspension has an issue it changes.
If the frame is bent or rusted through and weak it changes.
Road crowning can pull a perfect alignment.
A Tire can be the source.
A tight or wavy disc from over tightening can cause tracking problems.
A caliper putting to much pressure on one disc will cause a pull.
Mixed pad sources can cause different coefficients of friction side to side.
A faulty hose with an internal break to the outer covering will cause uneven braking.
Anti lock brake fault to one stde can be a cause.
Someone doing the work and on the alignment rack has to see something and on a test drive.
There is never a problem without a real answer if it's looked for in earnest.
Sometimes we get caught up into thinking there is only one problem when there is more than one, at the same time.
Hope you get it solved.
Good luck.

 

Maybe it's the current phase of the moon.

lol.jk.
Thanks for the input.

 

Hmm...I'll have to see if the printout they gave me mentions that.
