Nice truck! @NoDakCummins
I didn't do it.
This truck had tell tale signs of minor mishaps and a lousy mechanic. The guy that owned it was a senior like me, but a crappy driver I guess. It looks like some tow truck driver may have pulled the truck out of a ditch and tweaked the shackle. I shack;e is a very strong place, but you must pull straight. The truck came from Illinois. If you know the terrain, there's lots of fields and shallow ditches. When I had the truck aligned this spring, they told me the rear tow was out by 1 degree. I finally got to it.
This was an item on the to do list. Valve adjustment is left.

The tow truck makes sense. We have lots of roadside ditches here too so I can definitely see how that can happen. Cars seem to be drawn to them anytime it rains here....

Tried them at night yet? Usually those eBay headlights suck hardcore at night.
