Does it do it in 2wd and 4wd or just 4wd?? If it does it in 2wd I would suggest something in the suspension bent, or a brake locking up. If it only does it in 4wd look at the other things as well as make sure you don't have a broken CV or an axle.

Sometimes they get stuck in 4wd even when you shift into 2wd. Try backing up about ten feet in 2wd. Go forward and see if it still pulls. Might work

Did you check the toe alignment? On mine the book says 1/8" to 1/4" toe out.
