    My truck was pulling hard to the right so I had it aligned. After they aligned it the mechanic said it still pulls to the right, when I drove it , it wasn't as bad as before but still pulled to the right.
    He mentioned that my rear ends alignment numbers were way off
    But you can't align the back end
    So how do i fix this ?

    I would say start by looking for Bent or broken parts in the rear end. If you stand back and look at it, does the rear end look like it's pushed to one side? Or the wheels crooked in the wheel well?

    Is the truck lifted? Maybe the leaf springs are done? Tires same size? Axle shifted closer to one side? Pix
