Jimny pulling left. was created by OllieNZ

Hi All,
I'm struggling to figure out why my jimny pulls left. I've checked tracking(with laser alignment tool), brakes and drive train. All wheels turn freely and the radius arm bushes all appear okay. Any thoughts would be much appreciated.

Swop the front tyres to the rear and see if it still does it as iv known tyres to make a car pull to one side

Cheers guys,
I swapped the fronts and rears today, instantly fixed the problem. Redid the pressures too they were all over the place.

Glad if fixed your problem but then again it could of just been the tyre pressures to start with just keep an eye on them every week for abit to see if thay are leaking on the bead

The tyre on the front left is pretty worn from the pulling(it was doing it before I bought the car) so I suspect even correcting the pressures wouldn't have totally fixed the issue but both rears were brand new.
