    You need less negative caster in your alignment.

    Yes wheels are 18. I will mention more caster when they install the new upper control arms. Thanks for the advise.

    Had the ruff country uca installed,which allowed for more caster alignment. Big improvement! Eliminated the darting around on highway.
