    Not really sure what you're saying. Misaligned drive axles will want to push the truck a certain direction, meaning you'll have to steer into it to keep it straight. The only thing that might be a little hard to notice from the seat is tow in/out but that has nothing to do with suspension bushings being worn. Only tie rod and possibly excessively worn kingpins.

    i think what they are offering you is the best your going to get.

    they should have told you if your bushings were bad on the first alignment but you should also be looking at stuff like that for yourself periodicly

    i had worse than that i went in for a alignment with good rear suspension bushings but the bolts on the tq arms were stuck and the tech and to heat them with a torch to get the bolts out in turn damaging my previously good rear suspension bushings. changed them out myself and had to pay for yet another alignment.
