Question
fordsucks2
I am working on my 2000 Chevrolet Silverado, 5.3L, Z-71 Ext. Cab Pickup and I can't get it properly aligned. I am using a computerized 4-wheel alignment rack at my school and I swear I spent 5 hours trying to align the thing and no luck...I did get it where I could drive home without the tires turning bald on me.
We've studied eccentric cams in the classroom but this is the first time I've ever dealt with one (I like the shim type better). If GM switched from shim type to eccentrics, they'd do it because it's easier....right? Anyways, On my truck there are two cams on each end where the control arm connects to the frame. Is the first one for caster and the second one for camber? When I have the front end raised and I finally get everything in the red in the green and then lower it again, do a caster sweep, everything is off and I mean way off.
It's like a riddle wrapped inside an enigma!
Sorry...I'm a little disgusted
Basically could you explain how to properly adjust camber, caster and toe on my truck.
Much Thanks
