Went to get my truck aligned after getting the eibachs (f) and LC coils (r). Guy tells me my thrust angle in the rear is off and it will dogleg. I have a few questions now.
1.) Is there a way to compensate in the front?
B.) If so, is this the best long term solution?
2.) Will the panhard drop bracket get rid of the thrust angle? Or will it simply shift the axle assembly to the left?
Additionally, a little backstory. I got the truck used, it tracked straight but the steering wheel wasn't centered. Got a front end alignment, it then tracked perfect still and the steering wheel was now aligned.
I then installed the spacer lift, it still tracked straight, but wandered like crazy due to the new toe/camber settings from the lift. Took it to a ghetto shop for alignment #2, they did nothing (visually) to fix the camber/toe/caster and I left the shop with my truck pulling to the right.
I then removed the spacers, installed the eibachs (f) LC coils (r) and went to get alignment #3. Was given the above information about my thrust angles, and decided to seek help. Apart from the truck still pulling to the right, it is a hugely improved driving experience and I just want to sort out this last issue so I can continue modding!
Thanks in advance!
