[QUOTE="John Zuber, post: 1022635, member: 59842"] After replacing ball joints I took my ST in for the final alignment. I knew the camber/caster was out and had already installed the required kits. The final result after alignment was everything in ?the green?...the only problem I noticed was that my steering wheel was ?slightly? turned to the left. I?ve told the shop and they will make it right, so I will be bringing it back in...but here?s my question. I marked both (left and right) steering tie-rods with a dot of white paint, so I know exactly where they were after alignment. I then turned the steering left tie rod 1/5 turn to push the left tire out...and turned the right tie rod in 1/5 turn to pull the right tire in. The end result is a steering wheel that is now perfectly centered, and the truck still tracks the same. So, would my toe-in/toe-out still be correct? And would that affect camber/caster? [/QUOTE]
