just an update on the castor issue. took to Les schwab for alignment check. definitely need some castor work. the shims are on the wrong side of the axle - front ,should be to the rear., minor lower ball joint loose and the toe in is good according to the readout they gave me. I found out that if Les schwab loosens the u-bolts to change the shims they have to put new u- bolts on!! Company policy they said. Castor setting is supposed to be around 7- 8 degrees positive mine is negative 4.5 degrees. that should make a difference, I hope. thanks for all the input, I will let ya know how it drives once i get the shims done!!
