My cars been pulling to the left pretty noticeably for a while when i just let go of the wheel...Ive thought of a few different things like maybe a bent tie rod or something. I was gonna try an alignment due to me just lowering me car recently but was wondering you all had problems that were similar

Yeah you definitely need an alignment. How long have you have your springs on? cause usually you should wait for a week after to get the alignment for your springs to settle in a bit.

take it to a shop and get them to shake down your front end. then get an alignment.

Same answer everybody else. Get the alignment.

I changed my two front end links and both outer tie rods along with the pas. side axle and my car is pulling to one side. Getting the alignment done tomorrow ( Free lifetime thankfully).

what everybody else said. anytime you lower or raise your car ride you're going to throw off your alignment. H-techs BARELY affected my alignment, but my coilovers definitely threw it off..

Alignment!!! Or bent rims or one tire has alot more air than the other but most likely alignment

If it was pulling before you messed with suspension, either it had not gotten aligned for a long time, or something is bent/damaged. If after the alignment the car is still pulling, you can assume the latter.
