i notice my truck pulls to whatever way the road leans... I think its cause of the lift, but i really dont know. Any insight?

it's supposed to. many roads are actually built like that so if you pass out or something you'll drift into the ditch and not oncoming traffic

Roads are crowned to allow for water drainage. Never heard about the passing out drivers being pulled into the ditch thing.

yeah water drainage is another reason. i've never seen anything official just been told that part of the reason is that if a driver loses control for whatever reason the road will pull towards to ditch but since it's usually only a slight pull so the only way i can see that actually working is if the driver falls asleep or stops steering for whatever reason

Update

Took the truck in this AM and told them it still pulls. They put it on the rack, and lo and behold, it was out of alignment! I drove it back to work and it feels good. It goes nice and straight and the steering wheel is centered. Yeah! :pepper:
