neg. camber and pulling during brakeing
 

okay, on another forum, somebody said it looked like my truck has a little bit of negative camber. i really cant tell, but when i get it aligned, it should fix that right?

and when i took the truck out for a spin tonight, everytime i hit the brakes, the truck would pull to the left quite a bit. again, i'm guessing its because of the non alignment and that we replaced the tierod end on the drivers side(where its pulling towards)

i'm just checkign to make sure that its somethign we did and that gettign it aligned will fix it all.

Yes, I think a realignment will fix all this. I wouldn't drive it too much until it gets done though. Not real safe or good for the tires.

nope, i'm not gonna drive it much. i had to take my girl home last night though, and today, i'm driving it straight to the alignment place after i get the bumpstops off

eric, taking the bumpstops off might drop it more.. didnt think about that....i could see the negative camber when we came back from test driving it.. your dad actually pointed it out to me..

i dont care about it being lower! my back hurts enough with out me feeling EVERY bump in the road.

Check the brake lines and make sure you didn't crimp on. Most likely the right one since it pulls to the left. I did that when I put my spindles on.

Your "toe in" is probably out. Ours was out considerably and we used a striing line from the outside of the rear tires to see how much toe in we had on each side. A quick adjustment of the tie rod ends solved the problem at least until we get a professional alignment.

thanks a bunch brad! thats what the problem was. i fixed it right before i went to get it aligned

Good deal.........your welcome.

Another one bites the dust. The amount of help these places give just keeps on amazing me. What would we all do without it?

Good call Brad. :)
