Make sure its the right length first. If its too long or short i would imagine it would in fact pull to one side. Use a level and measuring tape to make sure its centered right in the wheel well on both sides.

Had the same issue. Had to align three times.

Solved it two ways - readjust the rear axle a tiny bit. There is a bit of play once you loosen the U bolts and you want it to be perfect.

Switch lower ball joints to adjustable and that brought it together and got rid of almost all the right pull I had.

Stock adjustment is very limited and might not be sufficient after a lift...
