    Hi all,
    my jeep was pulling to one side when driven in a straight line, so I got the wheels realigned/tracked yesterday but still have the same issue, what could it be?
    Talking to the wheel alignment guy after aligning the wheels he said they were well out but he was able to rectify them. After I drove it home I still noticed them pulling to one side so I rang him and said it to him, He said they were aligned 100% but to drop it into him today and he will switch around the front wheels to see does it make any difference. I don't believe it would make any difference, maybe I am wrong. what do ye guys think?

    It might. Sometimes alloys/rims will get buckled and cause an imbalance.
    I'd be more inclined to move back tyres to front, but side to side may work too.
    It can also be worn suspension parts.

    I would suggest the tyres are worn down on one side due to wheels being out of alignment. This could be causing your pull to one side. Even after alignment is done they will still pull.

    Put front wheels on the back and should probably be ok

    Thanks for the feed back biko and Spike Witwicky,
    I put on a new tyre on the front before the realignment, going to call to him to switch them this evening, I will keep you posted does it make a difference.
