I took my 68 Bronco to alignment shop to record actuals in preparation to do Cut & Turn of inner Cs.
77 D44 axle
2-1/2” WH suspension lift
0° rubber “C” bushings
0.8° Pinion/Drive shaft mis-alignment
TRO with track bar riser bracket on axle (Duff’s)
See printout below.
Caster is -1.9/-2.0, which was expected (Interesting driving).
Question: The SAI (steering axis inclination) is 21.3° driver side, and 11.2° passenger side.
Last alignment check (2007) it was 9.5° both sides.
I can’t find a spec that lists an acceptable range of SAI for D44 front axle, but I don’t think they should be this far apart.
What should I be looking for as I disassemble the front axle, or do I ask Wheel Works to remeasure?
