Re: Project "Just an Old Truck"

While we were at Cruisin' the Coast the truck had a weird feel to the front end when I applied the brakes and it was pulling a little to the left. Rob (Hart_Rod) said I needed to check the upper control arm shims, but I shrugged it off. I decided to take his advice and I'm glad I did, the left side aft shim pack had fallen out! They were sitting in the top of crossmember. I reinstalled them and torqued all of the upper control arm nuts to 70 ftlbs. I think I'll take it to the alignment shop and have it checked...
