New tires and front end alignment - and my XJ 8 (continues) to exhibit a drift to the right at higher speeds. The front-end-aligner says they've got the caster set as far forward as the specs allow.

Any hints about resolving this?

 

blipner, are you seeing excessive brake dust on the right front wheel? Is the right front wheel hotter than the other wheels after driving the car for a few miles? Both of these would indicate that you have a brake caliper that is dragging, leading to the pulling you are feeling. Other than that, with having the alignment done by a reputable shop, that is about the only other thing that I can think of. All the other common problems would have been noted during the alignment.

 

I'd be looking at siezed calipers as well, this is not an uncommon occurance on XJ and one that is not always immediately evident when doing a quck inspection of the car.
