Hello all,
My stang has 227,000 on it and the front tires are wearing on the inside. Tires appear to be leaning towards the inside. Alignment shop said they could not align it to specs. I replaced the lower control arm bushings without change. Original bushings were still in decent shape. Now I am troubleshooting my problem. I have put 180000 miles on it so i know the car pretty well. The tires didn't wear like this and it has not been wrecked. I have been reading the forums and from what I have gleamed, its like the ride height has changed. What I need is specs on original ride height, distance between the shock towers or the strut bolts. Something that I can make an informed decision about what to do next. The drivers side is worse than the passenger side but that stands to reason. I have been told to get caster/camber plates but I am thinking maybe the springs have sagged enough to throw the camber off. Any thoughts?
