Grizzly Pulling To Left Hard? Help?

[boostdfoci]

I need help, my 2 grizzly is pulling very hard to the left, checked the obvious. A-arms straight, frame straight, could it be the alginment? What do I look for ? Please help. Does this in 2WD and 4WD.

Without seeing it, I'd suggest measuring the distance from the the lower ball joint to the foot peg and also the upper joint to the peg. Take these two measurements on the left and right sides of the machine and compare. Also check the toe-in on the front suspension. How did you initially determine the A-arms were straight?

if your measurements check out like rp suggested maybe jack it up and make sure the front wheels spin free. no dragging brakes or binding wheel bearings. I assume you have checked for broken half shafts front and rear and or stripped splines in the hubs???

That's a damn good suggestion. Definitely check this first!

No Broken half shaft (Visual inspection), I measured the front hub center to reat hub center and same on both sides, I inspected the drive train and see no major problems. I am going to jack it up and check the other things tonight.

My toe in is out like 0.35 inches, is this bad? I will adjust that also!

I can't imagine that being normal on any ATV.
