Hi so i have an 86 F250 extended cab long bed when i drive it pulls pretty hard to the right i was wondering if anyone has any advise dont really have the money to take it to a shop so if there is any way around it please do share

 

Without any further information it seems as though you may need a wheel alignment.

Maybe provide us with a little more detail...


My truck has a similar issue... except it only occurs when I pass a gas station. Every time I pass a gas station it tends to pull to the right.

Could be a bad tire, try swapping tires right to left and see if it pulls the other way. If it does most likely it's a bad tire!

 

+1 on the tire. Cross the fronts and see if it pulls left, it might quit pulling alltogether

 

Check the air pressure on all of your tires. Low pressure on right side will cause this. It also could be a brake dragging.

 

iv checked the tires it, that didnt help and i recenty got new tires and it did it with the old ones as well as the new ones

 

They gave you all the free/cheap ideas. Looks like you are going to have to live with it till you save some money up.

All shops should check all the frontend components before they try to align it, and some shops in my area will do that, and then come back to me and tell me this or that is wore out, and they will let me then take it home and do the work myself, and only charge me $10-20 for looking at it.

 

Did you cross the front tires? (You said you "checked" them) I worked as a front end specialist for tire stores for 20+ years and 99% of the time a pull is caused by tires and not alignment. One thing you can check is the right side radius arm bushing, it sits close to the exh and they tend to wear out quicker due to the heat. If it has play it will let the arm move up causing the rf caster to go negative and cause a pull.
