Default Keeps pulling right at slow speeds....

Any speeds under 15mph the jeep pulls slightly right. Anything after that its straight as an arrow?

1.checked the u joints and they are good, no cracking or noises
2.all tires are new and balanced from discount
3.cannot notice anything loose in the steering components (what exactly should I be checking)


....Do I just need an alignment, there is a 4" lift on it and 30x9.5x15's

did this start after after installing the lift? if not then sounds like a loose suspension. I would also have the alignment checked a good shop will check all your suspension components and alignment for free.

Check your brake caliper. It may be dragging or wheel bearing might be going bad.

check your brake calipers, alignment, loose suspension, and if you 4x4 in the mud make sure there isnt a build up of mud on the inside of the wheel.
that happend to a friend of mine and it seemed like the alignment till we took it to the car wash. just an idea.
goodluck
