Camber and Inner Tire Wear

[77Concours]

I've recently begun to notice that my front two wheels have some negative camber. Not exactly like the Hellaflush craze but enough to significantly wear down my 35's on the inner fender. I just bought these in November I haven't even had them 2,000 miles so there hasn't been a need for a rotation quite yet. Has anyone experienced the same thing I have?

Too much torsion bar crank and improper allignment would be my first guess. Bad upper control arm bushings or balljoints would be second guess.

take her in to get her alligned- $100 alignment is way better then $500 in tires down the road... not to mention bearings and stuff

My front end is all new and im getting tire wear on the outer edge bad enough that im gonna have to replace my tires that are about 5-6 months old. Rear tires still look new..

This is because no one here can align my lifted 2wd truck!!

I took my truck for an alignment at one of the local garages who think their shat don't stink. Looks like they'll be receiving a phone call tomorrow sometime.....

This is true, I need to get this fixed before Friday. I'm going to WVU for the weekend to visit friends and can't wear these tires bald.

That many miles on them and wearing like that I would say you have more of an issue with toe than camber either way getting an alignment is best

I would guess that your upper control arm bushings are shot. Does the truck pull or wonder going down the road?

Occasionally yes, looks like that's my problem then. Doubtful my truck will be making the trip this weekend
