Re: Steering problems on lifted 72 Jimmy
Yes I am running shims as well, Cant remember the degree though. I have had about 5 lifted trucks so far all from 4"-12" lifts. I had an 84 blazer with 4" front springs that was horrible to drive, Almost felt like it was too sensitive of steering, any little movement of the steering wheel and it was like jerking the wheel one way or another.
It is hard to say why it didnt need it on the other one. But I can tell you that the exact same springs from one rig to another will ride totally different most of the time.
take there advice and get your caster where it needs to be. call up the spring manufacture if you know who it is and see what they reccomend.
