I took my 93 sport in to get it alligned today
I have recently replaced a loose tie rod end
and RA bushings and installed EE sway bars on both ends
The truck was pulling to the right
I got a call to pick it up and that it was alligned but still pulled to the right and that I just needed to rotate the tires.
Well I rotated the tires and sure enough no more pulling to the right
The thing is I was looking at the spec sheet and a couple of readings are out of spec by 1/8 of a degree
I called the shop back and the guy said that for the small amount it was out it wasn't worth bothering with offset bushings etc.
Here are the settings that are off
Is this ok ?
On the right The Camber range is from -1/4 to +3/4 mine read - 3/8 which is 1/8 degrees under minimum
also the Cross Caster (I don't know what this is)
range is - 1 1/4 to -1/4 mine is at -1/8 which is 1/8 over maximum..
is this anything to worry about or is this minor like the allignment guy said.
The truck goes straight as an arrow now.
Thanks
