Dartin for Divorce
That kind of makes sense. Do I adjust them with the wheels on the car still or do I take the wheels off? Maybe I can adjust everything enough so the car doesn't pull so hard to the right.
It's best to start with the car at rest and take your baseline measurements. If the car pulls, there's a few things which can cause it including heavily cambered roads. The roads in Vegas are built for maximum drainage and so there's lots of camber in the road (road isn't flat).
Once you know where you're starting from, you can think about how you're going to correct the alignment to better settings.
If you move both cam bolts the same amount, you're mostly only affecting the camber of the tire. If you adjust the front or rear cam bolts independently, you're going to mostly change caster.
Typically you want maximum caster and your camber should be between 0 and 1-2 degrees. If you don't like buying new tires, somewhere between 0-1 degree is better.
The toe will change how the car wants to steer. Floaty, or super sensitive (which can make it want to dart around). You probably don't need to change the toe much if you can drive it one handed right now.
Lastly, you have thrust angle which can definitely alter if the car is pulling. The fix is to add or remove shims to the rear leafspring mounts to adjust how perpendicular your rear end is to the center of the car.
Doing this right requires lots of careful measurement so that you can find and fix what's at fault. Don't go changing stuff before getting good initial measurements. Also get some grease pencils so you can mark your starting points and be able to judge how much change you're dialing in.
