Oops...

But ..NOW...drives correct...

^^ reminds me of  back when I was trying to farm... somewhat unusual I expect.   Things were getting a bit loose/wobbly on the farm run-about, an '85 [or maybe '86?] GMC 1/2 T.   I decided to replace several front suspension parts [tie rod ends, linkages, bushings, etc.]  and decided to I see if I could get by without a front-end alignment, so I carefully measured stuff [like how far nuts were threaded onto shafts, distances between different parts, etc.].   Long story short.... I figured it must have been a reward for my good clean living* .... truck handled A-1, no abnormal tire wear etc., etc.

* or maybe simply more luck than brains??
