GMC alignment

[claude brousson]

Darren-

Would you tell us what they did to align your rear wheels? Did they bend
the arms, or shim at the frame, or shim at the hubs etc. Does it stear
better?

As for 3" exaust-there is very litttle extra room but it does go through
the guides with sufficient room and through the frame cross members
just fine. Good luck.

They had to bend the one forward control arm on the right side. Other than
that they had to shim one side on the frame and de-shim on the other. Can't
really tell if this has improved the steering or not, in that, I have never
had any kind of a steering problem at all. I just put on new tires and
didn't want to take any chances of wearing them out, prematurely. On my 1800
mile drive home I liked the way it steered and drove. Wore out two tires on
the rear. That is how I knew the rears were out of alignment. I guess the
17k on the coach is my savior, as I haven't experienced a lot of the
problems as some of you have.
I am just waiting for my turn. Hope it never comes. Darren
