swop over both front wheels across the axle to the opposite side ,so that near side and off side wheels change places, then road test on a flat-ish road.
this cures or pinpoints the fault in 90% of steering pulling over cases.
the problem is due to a soft wall on one of the tyres,this causes the tyre to roll along like a cone when weight is put on it,making the steering pull towards the side with the faulty tyre.
give it a go - costs nothing to try,you may be very
supprised. i have cured many hgv trucks by trying the simple wheel swop test.

damien,have you considered having the wheels on both vehicles aligned e.g get the tracking checked

You either have low tyre pressure in both vehicles on the same front wheel,live in a quarry,or have a stressfull mind tic your not aware of.
