So my wallet has reached that point where expensive upgrades have to stop and instead I gotta make the best with what I've got..
quick run-down, EB44 swapped front with coils, RAs, 78-9 RA brackets, 7* C bushings, trac bar, rod end and tube steering.
Camber is good, toe is good, i know the caster is off.. has to be as the wheel returns to center just not as it should. No death wobble, no hard jerks while steering like a bad pump or air in the lines or anything like that. What I do have is play in the wheel while driving. Steering wheel never has been 100% centered but while driving the wheel has some play, i can move it a little to the left as an example and the truck wont jerk left but will track left. Lotttssss of correcting the steering while driving. If someone other than me drives they go crazy.
So what can/should/am I gonna do? I dont have a trailer and tow rig so I gotta drive this hunk of junk to rides/parks/the grocery store/etc.. I hate to throw money at stuff to cover up the real problem. I know a stabilizer shock would help, but whats the root of my problem? Caster? Before buying my house I had planned on a narrowed HP44 and have the Cs cut and adjusted to correct the caster but that sorta fell to the wayside with the rest of my funds.
I'm open to all thoughts and suggestions.. so lets hear it, err.. read it!
