ok so to start its a 1996 b3000 2wd. so i noticed yesterday that the drivers side tire is leaning with the top of the tire to the inside. I got a alignment done last month on it and it was fine till yesterday. also i noticed wen i took it for a short ride that the truck pulls to the right and the steering wheel pulsates. i crawled underneath and cant seem to find anything that looks broken or worn out. i also checked the lug nuts and there all tight. any ideas?
 
I'm wondering if they forgot to tighten the pinch bolt back up, when they did the alignment.
 
Grab the tire at the 12 o'clock and 6 o'clock positions and check for tire looseness. If so, either bad bearings or bad ball joints. Check for loose bolts everywhere on the steering system.
 
ok ill see what i can find. im guessing i have to have the truck jacked up right wen i do that.
 
well i'm gonna need both ball joints on both sides. wheel bearings on both sides and a pitman arm. looks like I've got a lot of work ahead of me lol.
