I recently had ARB lockers installed front and rear and also Gearmaster low range transfer gears. Since then when I am engaged in 4wd on the road the truck pulls to the right significantly. Could this be caused by wrong fluids, lube or something else? 2000 Montero Thanks!

It drives straight and true when in 2wd, its when I engage 4H that it pulls. Would being out of alignment effect it when only in 4wd?
Thanks!

When my hubs are locked in, I also pull pretty hard to the right. I have an LSD installed front & rear with Mobile 1 lube. No modifier.

These are the auto hubs and never did this before (102,000 miles) I can live with it, I was just hopeful nothing was getting damaged.
Thanks!

is it possible that your front left shaft isnt engaging that could explain the pulling

does it pull when the lockers are not engaged?

Yes it pulls when lockers are not engaged. We had some snow this weekend here in Colorado and when I put it into 4H it pulls to the right. Both fronts are engaging.

Jack up both front wheels and rotate the cv axles and see if the autohubs are locking up. Sounds just like my 95sr when the front axle disconnect doesn't disco when I shift to 2wd. I get a strong pull to the right then.
Not responsible for advice not taken...
