Car pulls to the right....

[91CamaroRS]

I just had new struts put in and two new tires on the front with an alignment last trip to Sears Auto Center. Now, for some reason, its pulling to the right. Not a huge effort to keep it straight, but its a noticeable problem. I brought it back to em asking to fix it under warranty. They realigned it 3 times, swapped tires, checked the steering linkage and inspected the struts that were put in. Took 3 1/2 hours for him to tell me it still pulls, there's a little bit of play with the idler arm, and with camaro's a notorious problem is collapsed brake hoses (thats not the problem. Those were replaced recently along with the rest of the front brake system.. 700 bucks. Ouch.) So. Knowing all of that, what else could the problem be and whaddya yall suggest I do about it?
Thanks in advance.

Heh. . .wind maybe? It sounds like you've done everything possible to keep it straight (or nearly everything--I'm no mechanic). I'd say, if you're REALLY wanting to know what the deal is, take it to a trusted Chevy dealership.

lower ball joints? how are the control arm bushings? these often overlooked items can fudge up an alignment, even if it is set on a "non-moving" vehicle.

Got it fixed! Went back to the auto center, and he realigned it, and adjusted the toe too this time, an the wheel's straightened out and no more pull. I noticed the steering is a lot tighter and a lot more responsive. So no need to reply to this anymore. Thanks
