As a temporary fix, you can add a little bit of air to the left tire. I'm assuming you've checked pressure on all four corners already.

You have to adjust the caster to do that.

I don't see anything that sticks out. Looks fine. How much do you weight?. I'm 6'2", 220 lbs. Mine is straight as an arrow. Did you swap the front tires left to right, right to left yet?

Ur left camber .5 positive and ur right camber is 1.0 negative. If there is nothing broken and bushing are good, I would look there. If you lay an orange cone on its side then roll it forward, does it roll straight?

Hope this helps.

You on drugs?

His camber Left is -.6. Right is -1. .4 a degree. Camber will not cause a pull. Caster will cause a pull. And his caster Left is. +4.7, Right is +4.8. You need about .75 degree for most to feel it. Thrust angle will make a car feel like it's pulling.

Just lean your head to the right a little bit and everything will be fine

Car will pull towards the side with less negative camber

Oops the left side is negative .5 which is still more positive than negative 1.0
