i've got sort of a slight pull going to the right too but i suspect its becasue the stearing is loose to that right, when i turn to the left its very tight (how i like it)

i also have alum bushings


what gives? tie rod ends?

Steve you sure your car isn't just following the crown/pitch of the road? Tire pressure up at all 4? Seen a few low tires since the temps here dropped. Right front wheel warmer/dirtier than the others after a run, indicating perhaps brakes hanging up on that wheel? Etc...

Ultimately, give me a slight "pull" to the right vs. the same into oncoming traffic!

If you want a freebee, swap the two front tires and see if the problem switches sides (if your tires are non directional). Otherwise you'll probably need an alignment, if it actually pulls to one side instead of just the steering wheel not being centered it's probably a caster or camber problem, or goofy rear toe.
