Do these trucks favor negative camber?
Recently welded up a winch bumper for it (well over 200 lbs) and I'll tell ya, that's just what the lift needed to dial in the ride of the truck. 100% softer,all I can say is it rides like its suppose to now
But it thru the camber off again to visibly negative. I had the alignment redone at my ford store. They sure got it straight but I seems to hav a little positive camber that seems to cause a little wandering
At this point I've ran all aspects of camber settings and am thinking the best for my truck is for it to have a tad bit of negative??
So I'm gonna bring it back and tell them either perfect zero camber or just a tad negative. wondering if someone can confirm my findings?
This forum has helped me a lot with my truck. The last few years I started working on it
Banks exhaust - from headers to the end (w/cat)
4" skyjacker lift with skyjacker shocks
Airbags
35" Nitto trail grapplers
New trans from ford
As much tune stuff that I could get
Air pump
And much more
So should I tell him exactly that
"" camber to positive .5deg +- .5 and 1/16" toed in.""
It might already have the rite camber then! Maybe it's the toed in I'm lacking
The specific ford tech that worked on the alignment did a fantastic job. She gos and rolls straighter than straight just that little difference. Kinda like it gos so straight its to easy to go left or right. If that makes sense.
One other thing, I'm pretty sure I can see positive camber, would 5deg be noticeable ?
I have mine adjusted just about the same. I'm able to adjust my caster also with the extended radius arms. I have 1/2 degree difference in caster for road crown. Drives pretty nice for an old pickup.
