Took the 34 out for a longer drive last night and on the highway it wants to hunt a little.  Have 195/50 radials on the front, mono leaf spring, tube axle, vega cross steer.
Running 33 PSI and 1/16 toe in.
How much toe in should be used?  Will more toe in help stabilize the car?  Will more or less air pressure effect stability?
Some people try to turn back their odometers
Not me, I want people to know "why" I look this way.
I\'ve traveled a long way and some of the
roads weren\'t paved.

A good friend will come and bail you out of jail...but, a true friend will be sitting next to you saying. "Wow...that was fun!"

Try taking the air pressure to 26 lbs.  Also I have been told 1/8 inch toe. I would dot the air  first.

Aint you got anything to do
:lol:
By the way try srbymichael.com go to the tech section . Its all explained real good there. I think the stuff came from pete and jakes or socal on setting up front ends.  I  set mine at 1/8 to 3/16 but ive done a full 1/4 and it was fine too.
