Still pulling to the left

I mentioned a while back that my P38a was sometimes pulling to the left, despite the wheel alignment being spot on. I put it down to tramlining and or the camber in the road. Running on 18 inch Hurricanes & new General Grabber tyres that were fitted last year. It had passed the MOT 2 weeks ago, new drivers side caliper, nearside caliper free'd off and an advisory on the ball joint on the drag link having very slight play. I'm sure the pull to the left has got slightly worse, in that I have to turn the steering wheel slightly right. I am assuming that bushes, ball joint etc. are Ok, so thinking that it could be the drag link. Will measure it to see if it matches what Rave say's. Any other idea's?
Thanks
Billy.
 
Possible air in brakes on one side, contaminated pads will also cause same effect check there is not any small oil or fluid leaks getting on the disc.
 
first job check tyre pressures

Tyre pressures OK
New pads and system has been bled.
Funnily enough, I was thinking today that maybe it had been in a bang before I bought it. Having said that, I didn't see anything untoward when I was replacing the front air springs last year.
 
I'm having the same problem.
Have had the tracking done 3 times but it's spot on. Had 2 new front tyres/balancing at the same time but, in a straight line the steering wheel sits down to the right.
If I let go it centres but the RR veers gradualiy left.

Get the steering set up correctly then. Covered many times. Tracking, centralise steering box, adjust drag link. In that order.
