Swap the two front tires, if the pull moves, its tires, if not... not.
Pulling can be from the rear axle and tires as well.
In the front, if the two camber settings are not the same, then the difference, aka -cross camber- creates pulling forces. During an alignment, insist that the cross camber be set as close to zero as they can manage. Some manufacturers neglect to create a cross camber specification.
You need to make sure that the tire pressures are the same right to left for both axles.
Part of an alignment is an inspection to determine if the components and bushings are ok. If you get an alignment, get a printout of the numbers before and after!
If the subframe(s) shift, cross camber results. Often a shifting SF will leave evidence marks. Fasterners can be challenged with torque and if they feel loose, back them off and perform the specified procedure which might include torque plus angle.
Sometimes an alignment tech will slacken and shift a SF to get a small change. Do not know what slack there is on the bolts. Have had this done on Detroit GM vehicles.
