Track bar relocation (1 Viewer)

[BILT4ME]

in all seriousness, listen to what @nukegoat and @jcardona1 have to say.

They've been through this and have trial and errored a LOT.

As a real suggestion, focus on the troubleshooting tree and not just throwing money at what you THINK the problem is. That will save you TONS of cash, but you'll have to live through the troublesome words of some of us asshats here........

BTDT, just on a truck a LOOOONG time ago, and not a Toyota. These are different than those and seem to have a real engineering design, not just throwing something to see what sticks.

Good Luck! Seriously.

Yeah my poor checking account has taken a beating due to my half cocked diagnoses.

Could be worse. You could have said your HELOC

My 80 is lifted 5 plus inches in the rear and exactly 5” in front and I never, nor have I ever heard of anyone, experiencing “bump steer” as long as the front track bar was parallel to the drag link.

Thorough research prior to breaking the piggy bank is always a good thing. But, as they say, there is no teacher like experience.

Well nukegoat after reading the Tom Woods driveline 101 link you sent me I realized I had set my pinion angle back to factory. With the CV driveline I should have set my pinion in line with the driveline. I adjusted my control arms and vibration is gone completely gone. Thanks for the link.
