Thanks Jim I will keep this updated. I have an alignment setup for Friday I don't think things are too bad. I have read tons on the alignment and have found a little conflicting information not much but since some have gone back years ago I know thoughts and info have changed.
I have done the "caster mod" and have tubular upper a-arms so I can get some good positive caster along with some negative camber. I am thinking to set the caster at positive 6 with camber maybe negative 1? or is this too much camber, last I did this I think that is where I ended up. Should I lower both of these? Then on toe, I have seen reference to both toe in and toe out. I beieve I have always done toe in about an 1/8th total. Maybe I try an 1/8th out?
