Solid-axle alignment, truck pulls to the left
 
You can adjust toe by turning the tierod ends, and caster with shims (?) between the spring and axle. But there's no adjustment for camber, right? Other than damaged hardware causing mismatched camber, what could cause a solid-axle 1st-gen to pull to the left at all times? I don't think the brakes are dragging but I'm not sure; it pulls maybe a little harder when braking, not by much.

Looked at the FSM yet?

Yep (the 85 one; I assume the section on axles applies to a 1st-gen). As far as I can tell, there is no camber adjustment except bending the axle housing.

I've never worked with solid-axle vehicles before; is it possible that a slightly bent frame would cause mismatched camber, or would only things within the axle itself (trunion bearings, whole thing bent) cause that?
