I'm sure this topic has been beaten to death, but looking for maybe a little more insite here.
I've got a 75 Bronco I finished restoring a little over a year ago. Pretty much everything new from the ground up. At highway speeds (60 mph) it has a slight hunt / wander whatever you want to call it. It has all new ball joints, steering box, bushings, etc. I have the 6 turn box. I have about a 3" lift in it.
Last year I had a front end alignment done, results attached, angle seemed correct. Someone had told me to try increasing the angle from 3 degrees to 7 in the front axle radius arm busings. I assumed that 3 degree's were in there, I ordered up a new set of 7 degree busings, I just pulled out the ones that were in there that came with the lift kit and they are 7 degrees.
I guess my question is, with a 3" lift, the bushing instructions say I should have a 4 degree bushing for a 2" to 4" lift. Should I order up and install the 4 degree bushings? And if yes, am I going to the right direction for this to help?
Any info appreciated.
Thanks, Matt
