At home alignment
What a difference and alignment makes! After the porterbuilt 1" narrow/forward arms, air ride and new front end parts!!!!the truck was hard to steer and wandered horribly! I bought and old school caster camber gauge and went to work! This is what i came up with initially ds 2 3/4 camber ,6 1/2 caster, ps 3 1/4 camber 3 1/2 caster. Toe out about 1/2 " and the ds tie rod was adjusted 3/4 " shorter than pass side!
After pulling it apart 4 times i ended up with 5 1/4 caster , 1.5 camber and 1/8 toe in as a final setup! Would like to have been at 1 degree camber and 6 caster but the bolts on the pass side dont have any more room for shims (at least for me to feel comfortable! ) long story short it turns much better and has near no wandering! I think the gearbox has a little play! That may be the next step!!!!
