Re: Front End Alignment

Also, does anyone have any good specs for a dropped truck? There were a lot of posts that popped up in a search, but not a lot of info. My truck is dropped 3.5" in the front, 2.5 spindle, 1" spring.

I was thinking 0 to -0.5* Camber
+1 to +1.5* Caster
1/16-1/8" total toe in.

Don't forget to cycle your suspension either. You're probably going to have to lift it to swap shims, push up and down on the bumper a few times to "resettle" the nose after installing shims. On my mustang the ride height was about an inch higher each time I jacked it up until it was resettled.
