    wonder if a different alignment is needed as for as readjusting castor..or maybe the location of where the TRE joins the spindle is entirely wrong causing bumpsteer

    If you want your truck to handle right, ditch the spacers.

    Do you have hubcentric spacers? Also, check the ujoints in the steering colum. I replaced mine and it feels SOO much better.
