Hello All,
I am almost completed with rebuilding the frontend of my sons truck. with 73-87 frontend, a-arms to pitman arm. I installed disk brakes with 2-1/2" drop spindles and 1" drop springs since is is now basiclly 73-87 front components do I align to that year(1978 parts)? if so what is the best in numbers for this? my research on the forum shows
+2.0 deg +/-.25 caster
-.25 camber +/- .25
-.11 to +.03 Total Toe
with 0 thrust offset

Is this correct? can anyone help me out that has done this upgrade or change to their truck?

Thanks
Scott
