pulling to the right..

Ok with over sized tire my truck over time starts to pull to the
right. If I rotate the tires it stops a little but in time will change
lanes for me.. Air presure is good. I have taken it in for alignment. They say that is good joints and everything.. Just took it in agian
this week and had it checked. They said it was still in line Then told me that the SD's are bad about pulling to the right when running large tires. That the only thing to do is rotate the tires more ofter.. Has anyone had this problem? If so does anyone now why SD's do this? and is there a fix?

I rotate my tires about 2000 miles. Maybe that will help. Who knows.

Maybe one of your tires is bad and has radial pull? I thought my truck was out of alignment, but it turns out, one of my BFG's has radial pull. . .the tech switched the front tires around and the pull was gone! Now I gotta get a new tire though, cause as soon as I rotate them, it'll pull again.

I had the same thing but when I ran it one the one side for long ehough it went away so that when I switched them back it was gone.

My truck was pulling to the right some, found out the inner brake caliper was sticking. Lubed it and it's good to go now.
