Re: Wheel alignment changing...
I tack weld the washers on the control arm bolts after doing the alignment on a F body. .....The camber will sometimes move after a few big wheelstands if you don't tack them. ......Usually if the steering wheell goes off center, it's usually because the camber changed. ........Adger is absolutly correct about securing the coupler at the rack, I've seen a lot of them loose,not only on F bodies either. ...........Tom

Re: Wheel alignment changing...
We ended up welding mine together on the fox body. Same thing the wheel moved on one run when the car left real high. Dont have any problems with that part now. Also put a strut tower brace on it after the pic to the left. That just opened up a hole new can of worms that day LOL.

Re: Wheel alignment changing...
Well just an fyi I took my steering shaft off tonight and its definatley the splines on the shaft they are rounded. Its usually after a big wheelstand when it happened to me ,but latley just turning sharp it would do it now I know. Its sounds like its a common problem at least an easy fix.

Re: Wheel alignment changing...
That looks about right, but I don't have training wheels.
