So, if you push laterally on the front end how much side to side play is considered to be acceptable? The new Truetrac in the front seems to make steering feel significantly different at times and I'm feeling that I may have too much loose play up front now that the higher profile tires etc are on.

Also, has anyone done castor corrected radius arms on a 3" lift? I'm curious how much of a difference that makes as well. How about the castor correcting bushings?

Any other ideas to improve the front end handling?

 

Do you mean that even with the caster adjusted to the maximum, you are not within specs???.

 

It's adjustable? Sorry I come from superbike world when it comes to suspension and just started to look at dealing with this issue, it's been a hectic few months with everything else.

 

I run a T.T. in the front of my 99 D2 with a 3" lift. What I have found is as long as you keep both front tires within 1 pound of the other the Diff will nearly cancel out any of the castor issues that go with a 3" lift.
What air pressure are you running front and rear?

 

The wierd steering is more the torsten I think, it's like there's lag when turning back straight as the gears re-position or something. It isn't pulling to one side or the other. I'm mostly concerned about it feeling solid at 130kph or so, dual live axle certainly doesn't help this.

 

Well,I sure hope it is. I haven't had a post liftalignment done yet either, andunless I'm wrong, all vehicles can be adjusted as far as the caster goes, but camber is not all vehicles. That much I know cause you couldn't adjust the camberon my Jeep. I'll be following this thread cause I'm curious now !!

 

A T.T. in the front won't cause any difference at higher speeds cause unless it is locked up from a loss in traction from one of your front tires, it is inactive and both axles are performing as they would have prior to the installation of the new diff.

 

Still not quite sure what side to side play is considered acceptable. Anything I can do to tighten things up would be great to know about.

 

Are you still running factory coils and shocks, how many miles on your truck?
