Steering to left

My 08 XS keeps steering to left. Ive had new tyres and local stealer has done the four wheel alignment. Dont know if this means anything, but when its lowered and the steering is turned it makes a grinding noise.

Has anyone any ideas.

My idea is go back to defenders as I could fix it myself.

Bump stops need greasing (grinding noise). Pulling left? 4-wheel alignment by a competent dealer. Sorted.
 I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

Thanks for that, ok anyone know a good dealer in the midlands area. That can do my 4 wheel alignment?

What about worn ball joints or lower control arm bushes? Could that affect the alignment?

Dont know the stealer told me it was because of the camber of the road. I do hear the odd knock coming from the near side front wheel.
