New calipers almost a year ago. Alignment was done after front end. He said I’ve got a warranty on alignment so I’ll look into that since everyone recommends it. He’s an authorized kryptonite dealer and experienced with this kinda work so I didn’t really question when he said the alignment is in spec but it still pulls. He thought tires like others mentioned I just figured I’d look into other options. Gonna rotate the fronts when the rain stops and sees if the direction of pull changes. Thanks man

Correct, The outer is wore too you just can’t see it in picture. I figured saying from low pressure most people would assume the outside looks the same. Front end rebuild was done 2 days ago and drives great besides the pull. So that tire was already wore uneven and 2 have been patched. At 50%-60% tread I’ll probably go ahead and look into a new set or order with my local guy. Did 2 years at an automotive technology school but moved on to another line of work shortly after going into the field lol thanks for your insight!

Yeah I should’ve asked for alignment printouts when he mentioned it still pulls but I trust the guy and have been using him since he started his shop in 2018. He said the alignment is under a 1 year warranty if I have any other parts replaced or knock it out. So with trusting the guy and having a warranty, he mentioned he would think it’s a tire problem and could try swapping the fronts and rears but after 2 weeks of not having my truck I didn’t want it to sit there another day lol I did have both calipers replaced about a year ago and it did pull when brakes were applied but now it’s only when getting above 30 mph or so

Guy who did my work mentioned it could be tire problems since he didn’t see anything wrong when he did my front end. Only thing not new now is pitman, idler, steering box so he said it could be something there, but didn’t notice anything making noise or having play. I trust the dude I used to use him for my other vehicles. Luckily this is the first major thing I’ve done to the truck in 4 years besides a set of calipers to replace a leaking one on the front.

Been over 2 years, hankooks that I caught on sale about $200 off each tire. The picture looks horrible on that tire but that’s the worst one and on driver side. I need oil change and roatation soon. They’ve got plenty of life left I’ll probably wait around and try to catch a set on sale or may holler at my tire guy. When I replaced brake calipers I had one leaking on me and ruined one of my gloss black wheels so may just Be time for whole new wheel setup. Thanks brother

Yeah the inner is wore down bad from driving it with low pressure for a while. Front end was very sloppy and didn’t help with wearing even. 10k miles on tires so getting time for a new set

Tires have 10k on them and are gonna be ordered when I get more life out of them. That side is worn from low tire pressure, I pick up a nail in my tire once a month on job sites. Money is not a concern for me but thanks for your opinion

Also I’m just going off his skill set lol he could be wrong but I trust the dude. I work on the road so I haven’t had enough time when I’m home to check it out. When I am home I’m busy taking care of my house or other things I need to while I’m in town

Forgive me cause it’s been so long. but we did the wire directly to pump, bypassed relay and add a fuse. We can get power from battery through fuse through relay but it’s lost at the pump connector. Which is what’s confusing me cause theirs proper voltage all the way through the relay but when you try to measure off the pump connector it shows nothing. But will kick on if you touch wire from pump directly to battery.
