I suggest you try again in 4H release the wheel and accelerate it should pull leftā¦
OP states that it's a violent pull to the left, in addition to vibration in the pedal. He stated that he normally drives in Sport 4A prior to the new suspension and never noticed what he is experiencing now. I do have a slight pull to the left in Sport 4A, as you describe in your thread. OP's sounds different. Hopefully, his shop will be able to take a look at it for him soon.

Yeah this was NOT present before the lift. I also had my local ford dealer do a once over of my bronco during a service right before the install.
Stock pull left in 4A/4H should not be violent but it does command you to hang on and correct.

Stock wildtrak did not pull at all for me. Now itāll change 3 lanes of traffic in 50 feet.
It's kind of disappointing that they didn't offer any suggestions, but I guess I get it. It's really hard to troubleshoot an issue like this without experiencing the issue firsthand.
I hadn't thought of this until you mentioned squeaking brakes, and I really don't think it's the cause of your issue, but it's at least *possible* that your front brake caliper is dragging.
At this point, I think you're going to have to take it back to the installer and demonstrate the problem for them.
As others have mentioned, torque steer is real, but we've got 3 6G Broncos and I've never noticed it being significant in any of them. It definitely shouldn't be pulling as violently as you say yours is.
Good luck, man! It's frustrating to spend so much cash on upgrades only to have it turn out like this. The good news is that it can definitely be fixed and I think you'll be really happy with the result once it is.

Do you have a track bar relocation bracket? or just an adjustable track bar?

I've got a stepbrother that's been saying I should use his shop for any new shocks etc. He's in College Station, which is >3hrs away. This thread is a big reason why I've not wanted to do that, since the people who would work on it are so far away. What if I needed to tow it back?

Update: the update is no update the shop drove it with me in the car and I watched them fight the car center and was told āyup torque steerā.
I asked if they could check the cvās to see if it was damaged by chance. He said they donāt really go anywhere and donāt get loose during the install process and Iād know if they were loose or damaged. I also asked about why the shocks were all the way firm on one side and all the way soft on the other side, and he just said āthat wouldnāt cause this.ā
so Iām at a loss. Iām annoyed as heck. @Accutuneoffroad wasnāt much help when I called. I used the shop they recommended and this car drives worse than it did before installed the kings. Borderline safety hazard.
Not sure where to go from here.
