Your steers leave skid marks while turning....

I would think that it could also be caused by the diff lock being engaged, or insufficient grease on the 5th wheel.

 

Did you notice that it is the steer tires being talked about, not the drives?

 

make your turns at a slower speed than 80 MPH.....:smt101

 

lol

 

I'd say over inflated cheap steers and/or worn shocks with a little bit of hold on.

Brakes would make it pull. Alignment would have to be way off which would be noticeable going down the road.

 

i would say a lot variables here , such as weather, road condition's, ect, most common is due too low air pressure, second the sun warm up the payment, making it soft and the oil in the payment is coming thru the top of the payment when the payment get's hot, but i would grease the fifth wheel and check the alignment, very easy too check that too, just take a tape measure, measure across the back of the steers too the other side and again in the front , noting the difference , if the tire's are not wearing, i wouldn't worry about it, that's the shop job, they probably have note's on it and next time in, they will fix it as they couldn't fix last time due too a driver who had a hot load too deliver, um btw what year make and model truck please

 

Yes. Locked diffs will put more sideways pressure on the steers when turning, since there will be no slip between the left and right drives. Insufficient 5th wheel grease will also put more pressure on the steers when turning, particularly with a loaded trailer. The sideways pressure will be greatest on the tire on the outside radius of the turn.

 

check the lubricant on the 5th wheel, a dry 5th wheel will make the steer tires push in a turn, and can do all kind of funny things.
