Alignment numbers

[fasttigger]

Hi everyone,

I have a 07 Tahoe and I want to re align it cause it feels a little "loose". I went to several tire shops and they only got the program for 06 and older Tahoes, but they say that is very likely that both models share the same alignment numbers.

Does anyone know if that's true?.... if not, does anyone know the numbers for the Hoes? (toe, camber, caster, etc.)

Thanks!

Roberto

I agree with you, but here in Mexico (I'm from Monterrey, Mex) things are quite different.... That software upgrade isn't available yet to the shops I've visited... and I don't want to take the Hoe to the stealer for to powerful reasons.... $$$$ and time.

I've got the specs but need to know what size wheels & if it's a 1500.

Thanks 73Shark!... Mine is a 2007 LT with 20" wheels.... I believe is a 2500, because here in Mexico you don't have a choice or at least they don't specify it. Tipically trucks with V8's are 2500 and V6's are 1500 (here)....

Best Regards!

OK, here goes: left caster=3.5*+/-1.0*, right caster=3.75*+/-1.0*, cross caster=-0.25*+/-0.5*, camber=+0.25*+/-0.6*, cross camber=+0.25*+/-0.6*, toe=+0.1*+/-0.2*, steering wheel angle=-1.0*+/-3.5*

A 1500 w/ 20" wheels is different.

Do the 2500s even come with 20" wheels?

 

[73shark]

Don't know. Wheel size for the 2500 wasn't listed so probably not.

Thanks!!!!.... I'm taking it to the shop tomorrow!.... this info is pure gold to me...

I'm not quite sure about if it is 2500 or 1500.... can you send me out the numbers for the 1500, I mean, just in case. I will check with the dealer if it is 15 or 2500...

Thanks again!
