steering problems

I have a 79 ford f-150 with a 460 it has a HD dana 44 front end and a set of 36 x14.5 x16.5 tires and i'm running coil spring. I put 9 inch lift coils on it and a new trac bar that is adjustable. everthing in the front end is new from the ball joints to the tie rods. The problem is that it is pulling to the left bad and everthing seems to be straight. has anybody run in to this before?

Did you double check tire air pressures?

Could be a couple things,If the air pressure is good in tires,try cross-rotating the 2 fronts.If that doesn't work,look into something with the brakes.

If above doesn't work, might have to take it in and have the front end aligned.
