Re: 2WD C10 Modern/Performance Alignments

Thanks for the feedback Mike! It is good to see this info really working for people! The original factory specs are horrible at best. A truck drives like a truck for a reason but a better alignment can improve the way it drives. It was my intent to show you guys the factory specs and how they could be modified for a better driving truck and what happens to the alignment as the truck is modified. I wanted you guys to be able to read an alignment sheet and understand what it all means so that you can make your own educated judgement on how to modiy your trucks specs while at the alignment shop. I can't wait to see more feedback from others!

As far as your trucks alignment goes, it makes me courious to see how far out the Thrust Angle has to be before the truck is "dog tracking" so bad that you can visually see it. I'm starting to think that as results come in from other guys we will see some rather large numbers. I would venture to say at this point that -.35 might not be so bad.
