i have a 94 ranger 4x4 and i just got it aligned and i was wondering if the specs looked correct cause some of the specs aren't within the vehicle spec such as cross caster and front left camber.

Does the truck track straight-ahead (no pulling to one side)? and do the wheels look straight when viewed from front?

If yes to both, I probably wouldn't worry too much about it (toe has the most pronounced effect on tire wear and it's shown as being in range).

Might still be a good idea to keep an eye on your tires once in awhile for uneven wear (wearing of one shoulder more than the other in particular).

it did pull badly to the right but now it's just slight when i let go for a few seconds could just be from a little play in steering?

And what did you bend in the front to make it pull?

Also, cross caster is not really important to have "in spec". Caster can have drastic effects on pull, and can be used to counter road crown, to make the vehicle seem to drive straighter on a crowned road (like you get in many rural areas). The side effect of that is that on a big highway with less crown it may seem to pull to the left.
