4x4 Alignment question
does anyone here know how to align a GM SFA 4x4? My k20 is almost ready to be on the road, as soon as i get the front lift done. I'm planning to align it at work on our Hunter machine, but dont know what order to go in.
i figured i needed to find the center point in the steering gear (pitman arm perpendicular to the box), get the tires both pointing straight forwards by adjusting the drag link, adjust the tie rods to get it perfect, then if the steering wheel is off, remove it and put it on the splines in a different spot. any ideas?

Re: 4x4 Alignment question
That is basically it for centering the steering wheel. Otherwise all you have to do is set the toe-in. There is no real need for an alignment rack for this - you can do it easily in the driveway.
