I had one on a 56 I used to have & will probably put one on the 55 I,m working on now.  They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though.

Remember how much you adjust,or write it down,so if it makes it worse or doesn't help,you can set it back to where it was.If that doesn't help,it might be worth it to find an alignment shop that knows I-beam front ends and have it checked.It could need a wedge shim under the axle at each spring to change the kingpin rake. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2003 Posts: 104 Member | | Member Joined: Feb 2003 Posts: 104 | I had some wander, changed to roller type wheel bearings,added heavy duty tie rod and modern tie rod ends ,new patricks four leaf front springs,and bushings, and sway bar , all fittings greesed ,truck handles like a new truck. old navy 51.......................... | | |
