maiden trip

[jonathan]

i took my truck on its maiden trip to IN its 200 miles away. on my way there i got 17.5 mpg going 70 mph at 2500 rpms on my way back home i got 18 mpg driving at 2000 rpms. i thought was going get better than 18 mpg on my way home but i cant complain. i just wonted to share this info with all of you. the truck did awsome. is there a way to adjust the camber with the ttb?

I have not had a hand on a 2wd front end but my TTB D50 had eccentric cams that the ball joints set into, these allowed for camber adjustment. 18mgs's seems solid 19.8 is my best on a 375 mile round trip on interstates. I'm guessing you have 4:10's, not bad at all

Like goose said. there are concentric cams that goin in w the top ball joint to adjust caster and camber. Do your self a favor and get the adjustable ones, so you can reuse them, unlike the set degree ones

Any alignment shop will be able to get them. they can put them in when they alighn it

yes i have 4:10s. do you think 3:55 would let it get better.

Look for something like this:

Again, I wouldn't waste your time with the fixed versions as they aren't much cheaper and in the long run, you'll need to adjust the camber as your suspension sags.

Good luck
