i have the same problem only mine pulls to the right . the car goes fuckin nuts on the highway .
my uncle has been doing alignments for probably 20 years and he told me theres a ton of things that will make ur car pull even with a perfect alignment. bad struts ,uneven coil adjustment,warped rotors or sticky calipers,bad bushings.
he wants me to do a complete brake job and struts before i even bring it up for an alignment

this can actually be the case. if someone weighs, say, 350, in a 2800lb car, thats a HUGE diffeerence and will cause a pull. you have to politely ask them to sit in the car while you align it. tweaking the heads is possible just to get the numbers green. what alingment machine were they using? on your sheet, is the side with the most positive caster and camber on the same side? you always want the most positive caster, and least camber on the same side, or else this will cause a pull. since you rotated your tires, did it change? did you try swapping the front two? a collapsed brake hose can also cause a pull. there are many different reasons, i tried pointing out the most common. if its not any of these, im kinda stumped. we use the new hunter alingment rack, its the shit. it makes all other racks obsolete.
