Re: Making a stock height truck handle a little better

SCOTI,

The alignment specs on the machine printout want the stock specs. I have requested -.5* of camber.

I also looked back through some old pictures, and it looks like I put the UCAs back on yesterday exactly how I had pulled them off. I believe the previous owner had already put them on the wrong sides, which also explains why the truck had so much positive camber when I first purchased it that the shoulders of the tires were worn out bad. Hopefully my mom can find the folder of all the stuff I did to the truck early on and that the alignment printout from the first alignment I did 5 years ago is still in that folder

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
