When I staged I lined up more to the left of the groove and that seemed to straighten it out. Maybe I was out of the groove when I was first lining up. I thought I was lining up correctly. The S10 went straight on Sunday with no problems. I did notice the S10 needs an anti-roll bar. When the truck pulls the front wheels, the truck is not level. The anti-roll bar will fix that.

Re: 2000 S10 Xtreme Drag Truck

While the S10 was on the lift I noticed the front driver side caliper was dragging. Passenger side wheel would spin freely but the drive side wheel did not. So, I ordered seal kits and rebuilt the caliper. It is a 4-piston Aerospace Components brand. Very good quality and easy to rebuild. Now the wheel spins like the passenger side wheel, no dragging.
