Alignment Problems

eastsyder

Hey guys, i need some advise on my alignment issue. my 09 with 19'' wheels keep pulling to the right. If i'm going down the road and let go of the wheel after about 2 seconds it starts drifting to the right. it did this a little until i got new tires a few weeks ago and it's more noticeable now.

I went to dealership and got the alignment done twice. they said the alignment is fine and to have the tire place swap the front tires left to right. here's the numbers on the alignment. i don't believe its a tire issue since it was doing it with my old tires.

When I Do my alignment I always add .5 degree more caster on the right to avoid what you are going thru.

Everything else looks OK.

Remember that just cause your car is in spec doesn't mean it has a good alignment.

I can drive my car down the highway and let go of the wheel for almost a half mile before mine drifts,he needs a little more caster on the right to compensate for road crown.

why is the dealership telling me the 370 doesn't have a castor adjustment?? are they just bullshittin me?

Red__Zed

no stock adjustment for caster.

Baer383

or camber for that matter.

Baer383

Thats what the OP was talking about the front right?

does anyone have a suggestion for the pull i have or do i have to just live with it? should i even try swapping the front 2 tires (yoke advan) which are new in the unlikely chance it is a tire pull?

Thanks for the suggestions

he's asking why his car is tracking.

I don't think the issue is road crown. I don't think the roads in AZ are crowned like the ones in GA, which has some of the most intense crowning you will find. If that was the problem, he'd probably be used to it.
OP, any accidents with the car? Even minor ones?

Baer383

All roads have a crown for water run off I use to live in N.J. and I did the alignments the same way I do them here,and if you look at his alignment sheet his camber is within .1 of each other but the caster is also only .1 between left & right he really needs .4 to .6 more on the right,he also may have some other problems but judging by what he has told us this is the only reasonable answer everything else is just a shot in the dark.

It is different state-by-state though.

Baer383

But last time I checked all states got rain,hence "road crown"
