Hello all I am currently faced with a dilemma of epic proportions. I am in the middle of my 1972 f100 build and finished the front end today. A little background I completely tore down the frame and have it sandblasted and painted. I installed new DJm beams, new moon springs (progressive rate and factory height), New kingpins, new brakes the whole nine right. When I bolted in the front tires on tonight and noticed that one tire tilt out more than the other. I’ll attach pics to show you what I’m talking about and I understand there’s no weight on the new springs but my concern is that if that’s the case the tires should be tilting out evenly. Also I have not fully tightened the axle pivot bolt yet as I was told to do it once the motor was in. Any ideas?

Reason: Typo
I could be over reacting but I saw this and lost my S*#%. Like I said passenger wheel sticks about 3/16th of an inch more than driver side even tho it looks way more
Ok so I couldn’t wait so I sat the motor and trans back in just to see where I’m at and it did help a lot. Going to leave the motor and trans in for a few weeks to see if it helps settle the spring a bit.
Roll your chassis forward 10 feet and then back into the position as pictured. Right now it prolly has some scrub/binding which is visually exacerbating the positive camber effect.
