Suspension problems

Hey guy my 84 BII is having a little suspension problem and I was looking for some more awsome advice. My truck is the 2.8 4x4 and whats happening is that when Im driving my truck is that it keeps pulling to the right. I have come to the point that im sure its my from i-beam bushings. I think this because the front right tire is pushed back a bit compared to the left and im getting inner tire wear. Also my right front(passenger side) rubbs the inner wheel well while in a parking lot doing turns. this does not occur on the left side of my truck. So im positive its the bushings. So i was woundering how I should go about fixing this, should i get them tigtened or should I get a new bushing on both i beams. I was woundering the most cost effective way to deal with this problem. Any help would be awsome thanks guys.

i would go with poly bushings to get a better system .but your truck might need a front end alignment.

Exactly what Monty said, I would replace all bushings with polyurethane. And after you do that, get an alignment. Also check air in the tires just to make sure.
