    I agree 100% with Jerry, you're running almost straight up on your spindles. To me showing 0.17 toe on each side is bordering on too much. That totals to 0.340" which is close to 3/8" total toe in....

    I'd say you're not done yet. Find a tire shop that has a Hunter Road Force Balancer and have them check your tires for Road Force. Sometimes you can shift them on the wheel to get them into spec,...

    Can you post some pictures of this beast, so we know what we're dealing with? You never know, something may jump out from a visual aid.

    You've got parts that are or soon will be 40 years old, and normal wear on the tie-rod ends, ball joints, sway bar bushings, etc, etc is going to give you excessive play in the system. A quick...

    Just curious, did you install most/all of these new parts, or did you have the work done by a shop or a series of shops? It's not a big deal, and I'm not criticizing in any way - just wondering if...

    Well, if it were mine I would still be looking for a good alignment shop. If it wanders, any good alignment guy ought to be able to tell you why. I'd say you're still dealing with kids with some...

    Any good front end shop would give you both the OEM specs and their settings, if asked. As a former owner of a '71 Charger I cannot imagine that jacking up the back end three inches would result in...
