Hi Oscar and all,

 

I need some help. Can you tell me how you will check your alignment? I have a customer who has the same vehicle and I have not run into the suburban set up before as below. Any advice is appreciated if you are familiar with setting up your own alignment.

 

This is the issue he is having when using our alignment kit is as follows: Our system does caster, camber toe in that order and he says he is unable to do that because of the lower control arm. Any help is appreciated. I would really like to hel him, but I am coming up blank within my limited knowledge of Suburbans.

The lower control arm is static/stationary so the upper control arm is the sole adjustment for CASTER/CAMBER. If I set the CASTER it is almost impossible to maintain this setting while trying to set the CAMBER. There are 2 bolts with cam washers on both sides that slide on a guide pin so it's fairly easy to adjust CAMBER in and out. If the rear busing is in and the forward bushing is out or vise versa this will move the wheel forward or reverse. Now to maintain this setting while trying to set CAMBER is the challenge.
