      @@CleverStuffTo Ok cool! Somehow I missed your reply I 'm gonna order that camber tool.
      I have found by measuring the spring plate in back and front of the U-bolts to the top of the frame that the right side caster is 5.76 degrees Positive and the left is 2.86 degrees positive by doing a little math.
      I also hit a speed bump once that caught me off guard and actually broke the right bottom leaf spring once and it took me about 1.5 years to get it fixed.

    Do you intentionally have .78 more caster on the right for a reason Robert?
    How did it drive where you were done man?
    It should corner well with that little bit of negative camber on both front wheels?

      Well It should be -0.45 is the best but yes that is the side to side you want a little more positive caster on the right side, the side with more + Caster will pull opposite so it will help you stay straight for the crown of the road.

      @Robert Clever OK one thing I like to ask is that my steering wheel has lots of play from the gearbox ..sometimes it feels tight and won't pull as much to the right and sometimes it's lose and it goes all over the place.
      Do u think my steering box could be worn out internally..should I change that first..??

    • @CleverStuffTo
      @CleverStuffTo  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@dell7054 Sounds like it is wearing out and there are cases that the steering box will leak internally which will also make your truck have a pull I would get that checked out or just have it replaced that will at least take it out of play.

    • @dell7054
      @dell7054 ปีที่แล้ว

      @Robert Clever Yeah its been going on and off for about a year sometimes it's tight and lose the steering. New gearbox is around 1200 at the dealer and I can install by myself.. and then I will get an allignment
