Hey all...Bought a 2012 on the day Cam Newton fell apart :baby:

Truck is in amazing condition and came with 18" Vtec rims an 35x12.5 Antarres Deep Diggers. First time I ever heard of this tire brand but I didn't complain as they had less than 2k miles on them.

Anyway driving home it pulled very hard to the right and obviously needed alignment. So the next day they had to align it twice and rotate tires but it still pulls...sigh...60 day 2k mile warranty and of course as soon as I signed they went from preaching the warranty to saying that just happens with with big tires lol! I still have 800 miles or 3 weeks...

So I have been reading up and over on another forum a guy said its probably the 2" front end lift and tires causing too steep of angle for suspension components. He said the TRX4/Outdoorsman comes stock 0.6" higher than other trims. So he said 2.5" on stock components could cause the pull.

What is a good plan of action to fix the issue? I know I know, just lift it already!

did you get a print out of the alignment? just because they did an alignment doesnt mean its done correctly. ive had some crappy aligments done before. if rotating the tires doesnt change anything (meaning it still has the same pull), that points to the aligment. if the truck is aligned properly within spec, it should drive straight regardless of how much level you have. you are at the max amount of level height for your truck though.

Post up the alignment print offs.

step 2 is rotating the tires front to rear and letting us know if the problem changes or persist. Those tires are super cheap, wouldn't be surprised if you have a tire pull

Mud terrain tires will pull one way or another, some more than others. Depends on size and tread design.
