If the steering wheel's pulling to one side going down the road you may have
a caster problem. From what I know the front caster is used to provide the
wheel centering torque. If they are imbalanced, you have the above problem.
My car had been hit on the right front, and one of the left-side control arms
had been put together backwards - was pulling hard (dangerous). $750 later
(had a specialist sort it out and subcontract to a frame shop) it tracks
straight. Still scrubs rather a lot on hard lock though.
Good luck.
