Easy fix for Bronco lean

By off-chance I fixed the lean I had, (by mistake) When I pulled the front axle out to "cut the C's" I unbolted he axle at the C bushings and left the radius arms bolted to the truck. Now during install, I made sure the axle tube was Parallel (not level) with the frame rails. Since the radius arms were locked into position, neither one could
rotate while tightening the C caps, and since the axle is so damn heavy the Arms "had no choice" but to bolt up parallel, = no lean when done!

that's how the ford manual says to do it. popular opinion says to do it reverse. either way, you did what you set out to do. that's a win in my book!
