I know I need an alignment but I havn't had it done yet because I know there's an issue I need to fix before I do. The truck has had steering issues before the new drop axle thats what leads me to beleive that its the steering box or king pins. I shortened the pitman arm and heated and bent the steering arms a bit to make the drag link level. I had called a local ol' school garage/ restoration shop and I got sticker shock because they charge $80 an hour!
