Alignment questions
I have several questions I'm seeking answers too and hope I can find them here.
Project vehicle is a 86 F250HD 4X4. Had a diesel, now a 460 in its place.
Concerning toe in, if it was measured with a tape, how much would it be?
1/8 inch or 1/4 or how much would equal the degrees it calls for and what would be the degree spec for that vehicle?
And how far off the floor would you measure from center to center of tires?
What would be the caster and camber specs also?
Thanks

Specs. for a Ford truck are almost like "***** on a boar hog".They are given based on ride height(measurement from top of axle to bottom of frame).For your truck,camber can be from -1 to +3 1/4 degrees preferred,and caster is preferred +4-4 1/2 degrees.Preferred toe-in is .03",which would be .06 degrees,comes out to about 1/32".Personally I would try to get camber between 0 to +1/2 deg.
