    Doctor Diff Viper-Style 13" Front Disc Brake Kit

    Well, since Ackermann cannot be adjusted, (but can be measured) I paid no attention to it. My car has always tracked straight and steered well. It was a priority for me.

    Doctor Diff Viper-Style 13" Front Disc Brake Kit

    You are over complicating things. Simply put, my tires contact the frame rail behind the tire on each side while never contacting any other part of the car. When I used to pay for alignments, I specified 1/8" toe IN. That is what I set it to when I aligned it the last time. My 2007 Dodge truck...

    "Please S T O P saying this" thread.

    How about this one...? The people that make it a habit to ask a question and then answer it themselves! Often times it is a yes or no question. Is it annoying? Yes it is. Does it impress you? No, it does not. I hear some radio talk show hosts doing it. Instead of just saying what they mean, they...

    The chassis is clearly stock 1970 stuff. Stock strut rods, stock and original lower control arms though they have been gusseted.

    How to report a member for not delivering the part but taking my money?

    This is how you respond? Berating the victim? Maybe the OP is trying to be polite. Us brash Americans often put civility aside to get what we need but not everyone is as bold as we are.

    I've never touched the strut rods but the paint is worn off the frame rails behind the suspension on both sides. See post #88. You can see the red paint gone but some original green paint remaining.

    Doctor Diff Viper-Style 13" Front Disc Brake Kit

    The general rule that I've found is that you need a wheel diameter that is 3 inches larger than the rotor size. 11" rotor, 14" wheel. 12" rotor, 15" wheel. Regarding your issue about steering travel, my own tires rub the frame rail before the steering range reaches it's limits. Be a baller...

    The lower ball joints have “stops” in them to limit the steering box. At full turns, the nubs on the lower ball joints contact the LCA. It is better to bump them than to hit the internal stops of the steering unit itself.

    Sundays......

    To add, When Mark went to college, he told his father “You’re the man of the house now”. COVID-19 is desperate to develop a vaccine against El Dubb 440. When Mark enters a room, he doesn’t turn the lights on, he turns the dark off. When lightning strikes him, the sky gets a scar.
