How would you interpret this alignment readout - still getting left pull

Had decent left pull before alignment. Got one and it's somewhat better but not fixed. Tires also rotated (front to back) and balanced to rule out a problem with a front tire or radial pull. The stats on the printout are Greek to me, yet I wonder if they can assist in figuring out why it's still pulling. I see negative stats on the drivers side after the alignment - is that bad? It also says something about toe adjustments being required at the bottom.

The new adjustments are correct for the front, Toe changes due to wear in the tie rod balls.. So far it seems set in the front.


The rear camber though aren't adjustable but should not affect the pull you still have. I wonder how did they adjust the rear toe? AFAIK it doesn't have adjustable arms anywhere in the rear.

Sure there is. Its camber that cant be factory adjusted. The rear has cam bolts that can adjust toe.

As far as it pulling to the left, a hung caliper could be causing it to slightly pull to the left. engine/trans alignment could be causing it (if you have had the trans replaced the lower subframe may not be in even causing it to be slightly out of alignment causing a slight pull.

To eliminate the tires causing the front left side pull you need to rotate the wheels side to side not front to back.

With the left rear camber being positive it could cause a right rear push to the right and causing a left front pull. Meaning the rear wheel/rear end may be steering the front to the left.
