    If I get an alignment but then either remove my sway bar or add the sway bar relocation kit would I then need another alignment?

    I think my alignment may have fixed my sway bang issue. I cut the wheel pretty hard and never got any contact. I'll try it again when I go back out later..

    Now more importantly - can someone explain to me the differences between caster, camber, and toe? Here's my alignment report. My only concern now is that the truck wants to occasionally pull right. Especially when braking. If I take my hands off the wheel I can just watch it turn to the right as I slow down...seems like something is off there..

    Looks like the caster is still far out of spec. I'd go back and ask why it's still so far out. Could be that there isn't enough adjustment (ran out of caster), in that case you need aftermarket control arms (they have additional caster adjustment). The higher the caster the more the tires want to straighten and not flicker like a bad shopping cart wheel.

    Ideal alignment numbers:
    Camber = 0*
    Toe = 0*
    Caster >= 2*

    Sucks that you have to go back. It seems like most places do a quick and dirty Toe only alignment to get you out the door (but it still takes forever) and then take steps to do it right when you complain.
    I have to go back to Firestone to get them to increase my caster too.
