So I'm sitting looking at my truck in front of me in the parking lot, and it looks like the tops of the tires are bowed out slightly. What can I do to correct this? Would this involve me rebuilding the knuckles? The knuckles are leaking a bit of grease... If I'm using the right terminology...

I'm going to try and take pictures when I can. Thanks.

 

like positive camber right.. kinda like this \_\------0------/_/ but not as bad im sure lol.



text drawing skills ftw

 

That is correct my friend

 

what kind of truck? Im assuming its a 4wd.

 

sorry, its an 82 toyota pick up. yes its 4wd. solid front axle.

 

is this a result of playing in the snow recently?

 

no, unfortunately it wasn't running right when there was snow I just got it running right today.

 

if it was ifs i would say someone probably cranked the torsion bars or something to lift it but being solid axle it should have a camber adjustment in the upper ball joint (haven't done a yota but plenty of chevy's and fords) . . .were ball joints done anytime recent before ya got it do ya know . .if so ya probably play with it else i'd take it and have it aligned

 

I'll have to take a look at it tomorrow and see if theres anything I can do to resolve the issue.

 

Try backing up 10 feet and pulling forward..I know alot of 4wd trucks postive camber when you turn them hard to pull into a parking space. Then straighten out when you move straight again. Just a thought if you turned hard to pulling into a space?
