In any event, did you do final torque on the suspension fully loaded? The control arms in particular usually require setting torque fully loaded at ride height.
Wheel bearings should be checked again after run in especially after repacking. Could be loose now that excess grease has been pushed out.
Lastly, could be the steering box has some slop. Verify the other things first, and after alignment if the problem persists. Look at steering box adjustment.

DOH! I forgot to mention, w126 350SDL
Everything torqued under load as per manual with a proper torque wrench.
Alignment done at Mercedes and issue persists (though it's very minor).
Will recheck bearings, good point on that. I normally hand tighten then back off just a tad with wheel spinning freely and no side slop when shaking by hand at 10/3
