74 Swinger 413 column shift 3:55 gears

Question for the BB Group:

I just rebuilt complete front suspension, including gear box.

Basic OEM parts.

My front tires had the negative top in bottom out profile.

I loosened the upper control adjusting bolts to straighten tires, checked them with a line level.

I have to be able to drive the Dart 40 miles to old time front alignment guy.

Any suggestions? Am I on the right track?

Thanks,
DDume

Might check the toe with a tape measure just to make sure it’s not way off and then hit the road to your alignment guy

The only two tire wearing angles you need to worry about are toe and camber. Caster is not a tire wearing angle, so if you get camber and toe close, even if it pulls because of uneven caster, it's ok to drive to the alignment shop. So yes, you're on the right track.
