got a alignment today

[jonathan]

the truck had sloppy steering and the camber was all out of wack. they said that the camber was at a -2.5. so i asked if that was good he said hell no lol. now it feels like new truck. they also adjusted the steering box to.

they adjusted camber??? woww how did they do that did they put the shims or whatever on the balljoints?

 

[biggin92]

they just twist the adjuster bushing around till its right

 

[jonathan]

they put adjustable camber bushings on the upper ball joints. diesel brad told me to make they did that

$160 and some change 80 of that was for the adjustable bushing

Ok. that is about right. And now you can reuse those adjustable cams. The other fixed cams would have to be changed out for differnt ones if you needed an alignment again

Tape measurer .


If anyone needs the adjustable cams, i have a few sets in my toolbox, plus a full fabtech lift kit for a 2wd 250/350 with extended length trailing arms.

It sucks i have a John Bean Visualiner but i can't fit my truck on the rack.

That's the biggest reason why TTB frontends have a bad reputation. Replace the worn parts and get it aligned and it's not that bad a setup.
