    Ball joints were mounted upside down on the spindle lift, flipped and it drives like a dream

    With the maxtrac spindles, the outer tie rods go OVER, not under the spindles

    And now to go look at my shit to see if I have the same fix to do. Everything you described is relatively the same for me. I have 0 clue the lift, havent had much time to stare at it. OP if you're alright with t might post some pics of whatever I got on here. Title of your thread is the same as my issue, no need making two.

    So I purchased my truck as is. I do not have a clue what is done to it. I reached out to the company the previous owner had do the build and they basically ghosted me. They have no interest in helping out.

    First purchased the alignment was off...bad... Would easily send me into incoming traffic. After an alignment at the dealership it was good. Seems to be slowly starting to pull back again. Braking with a decent pressure say traffic on the highway seems to pull me hard left as well and steering seems to hate it. My father noticed the tires are starting to wear more on the inside. Not as drastic as OP. Only 21k miles on the truck. Any opinions, concerns or recommendations for anything would be appreciated. I ain't got the money to wait and let it get worse or go through 3 sets of tires. OP needs to get me a pipeline job lol.
