Adjustable Track arm question

[retroedaddy]

So I lifted my Grand and used an adjustable track bar. I got it within probably 3/8's of an inch driver to passenger. The problem is by the time I turn it a full turn to get it lined up again, it's more than 3/8's the other way. Is 3/8's of an inch within tolerance? I am still chasing a Death Wobble,although I haven't got it aligned yet. My problem is the only adjustment is at the frame side, so it has to be a full turn at a time to adjust.

You are asking if your front axle being 3/8" off center is ok? If so then I don't think that will be a problem.

Yes that is exactly what I mean,sorry the original post wasn't more clear. I was thinking it was close enough too, but I am a little punch shy since it death wobbled so bad the first time I drove it that it knocked the front bumper off. I have since adjusted it, but haven't driven it a lot.

Hell on my f150 I think its shifted almost 2" to the left. I can't tell driving it.

If you haven't id go ahead and replace every bushing in the front end

3/8" isn't too bad. I just did mine by eye and I know that ain't very accurate but it works. I think i would make it so that the axle is 3/8 offset on the driver side, that way when you hit a bump and the suspension compresses the axle will be moving in the direction that makes it more centered. And go ahead and give it an alignment before you try to drive it again, that may help out alot. 90% of the death wobble I've seen has come from a wallowed out trackbar mount or a loose locking nut on an adjustable track bar. The other 10% would be from the alignment, tire balance, bushing problems.

***EDIT: Now that I think about it, it seems weird that just one turn on the tb would move your axle a full 3/8". not sure what tb that is but it seems like you got something else messing with you.
