Re: Adjusting Camber & Caster

eightbanger,
Not sure what Caster and Camber is but since I restored my Sons 69 Longfleet we replaced everything up front with new and now it looks like an Old Man with Bad Knees. The top of the tires are way in and the bottoms are way out. I think I can adjust them with the shims that go on the top A Arm but have never messed with this. I usually just take it to the local Alignment shop but I have spent so much money on this thing that spending money has become and issue. I know that adjusting Toe in or Toe out is adjusted with the Tie Rods and the shims should take care of the Old Man Knee Look. Ive heard that you need to either go out farther or in farther at the top of the tire so when you set in the truck it settles to the right alignment (Not sure which one it is). I probably should just take this thing to the alignment shop and get beat up about the money later.
