Ok, alignment is done.
The passenger side is exactly how I wanted it. The driver's side is a little bit off. I can attribute that to the passenger side has the cone shaped washer on the front stud shaved down to about half the height of the rear washer. The driver's side cone shaped washers are still the stock thickness. I would have to machine down one of those washers, but I don't have that capability here unless I pay someone to do it.
Overall though, I highly recommend the caster mod for any truck, whether stock height or lowered. Frankentruck goes down the road straight with no play in the steering at speed. Every time I hit a bump in the road, the wheels stay in the direction they were pointed. No bump steer at all. Any c10 I do suspension work on will have the caster mod, and yes, I'll make sure to put the upper control arms on the correct side the first time
