I'm original owner of:
03 Dodge Dakota SLT AWD QuadCab, approx 2 to 2.5 years ago AT 63000 miles, replaced oe tires with Dayton A/T of same size. Experienced hard left pull. Alignment checked good, rotated tires & problem ceased. Over time problem reappeared, have rotated tire position multiple times, realigned, and had dealership check for potential ball joint issue again. Brakes also check good.
At 86000 miles it pulls hard left regardless of tire location. Is it possibly still a radial pull as there never was an issue prior to these tires, or an AWD hub issue, if so how do you check this. Have you heard of this befor?

If the steering, suspension & alignment is correct, and we must presume that the alignment machine is correctly calibrated and the tech has checked the cars components correctly, it must be a tyre issue, can you try a different set of tyre and rims as a test? This may prove the theory.
