As stated on the other thread about my front tires. I did a test to why I'm toed in. First I have no thumping noise nor do I have vibration while driving. I have a slight slight pull to the right going on a straight away....I checked my ball joints did the test...jack up the vehicle put jacks underneath. grab the wheel while pulling from the top and pushing on the bottom and visa verse back and forth...did the bar test under the wheel......I have no play whats so ever and the bearing test also which they are new anyways still no play.....it's tight....driver side is towed in more than the pass. side. can tell by the wear also there is some slight cupping....I let it go a little to long.
I put new shocks today my originals were gone. So would it be safe to say I need just a front end alignment?
 






New tires = new alignment every time in my opinion. If the toe in is off and the ball joints are good then the alignment should cost you the $50-$60 without extras.
