    I edited my original post to say this too. It’s is a semi-custom At the Helm front bumper. I chose the single center hoop option and asked Morgan for the extra support tubes. He’s super responsive and super fast. And the bumper looks amazing!

    Here is the print out of the 2nd alignment, I don' think caster is as high as some have recommended. Also they had265/65 tire listed when I'm on a 255/80. Still pulls hard right, not as squirrelly but not great.

    See if they can get the right side camber less positive, that can cause a pull. Though a .5 degree split doesn't seem like it would make it pull hard, especially given your caster is higher on the right (which you want to compensate for the crown in the road).

    What brand 255/80?

    You need way more of a caster split. On ST Maxx’s in the same size, my left caster was 1.3° lower than my right caster. Only way I could get it to drive straight.

    If ur caster is a degree or more different from side to side, it will pull hard to one side, I generally make them within a half a degree or less from left to right, forget about the crown in the road as every road is different, does it return to center equally from both ways?

    They’re gonna pull like a bitch. You have to have a high caster split.

    More right caster than left. By a lot.

    Finally did the exhaust dump after the axle mod. It's looks so much cleaner and symmetrical now and the tip won't collect all the mud and dirt while wheeling. I had gone out wheeling this weekend and was underneath cleaning her up and said, yeah you gotta go lol.
