[QUOTE="Lil ugly, post: 762442, member: 3188"] There are some issues with setting up a ram in an offset configuration but I would not expect them to show up in straight line driving. They will show up in full lock to lock steering because the angles of the links are so different at the knuckle which causes them to move unevenly. In straight line driving that is negated as the links and ram are acting as one unit for what little bit of movement you have in back and forth correction. My rig did this and i found that one of the ram ends had come loose and changed my toe in angle to a severe toe out angle. In your case it sounds like you might have something loose (play in the heims) that shows up when you start going down the road. Try setting your tow in at like 3/8 as tbltoy suggested and see if it improves. [/QUOTE]
