It takes a large difference in caster to cause a pull. When aligning a car, we were taught in Tech school to build in a slight pull to the left to compensate for road crown. You'd make the left camber .2 degrees more positive than the right, or, the left caste .4 degrees less positive than the right to achive the road crown compensation.

It takes about .5 to 1.0 degrees caster difference left to right to cause a noticeable pull, but depends greatly on car, tires and other variables.
