DIY TTB Alignment Procedures & Tips; "...Prior to doing any alignment verify wheel bearings, ball joints and tie rods are not loose. And don't look at the factory alignment specs; these are for stock tires, on stock rims, at stock ride height. Toe-in is the easiest to adjust and has the most to do with how your tires wear. Most people adjust it 1st but remember changing camber will effect it a lot and caster changes can effect it as well, so it should be set close prior to setting camber and caster then reset after all other adjustments are made..."

Light Trucks & SUVs incl. TTB; "...On 80 to 96 and F150s, and 89 to 92 Ford F250s, a condition known as "recession steer" may be encountered. A left drift or pull that occurs while braking but produces no torque or pull in the steering wheel may be caused by the left radius arm front pivot bushings. It is important to make sure the pull isn't due to a sticky brake caliper or contaminated brake linings. If the brakes appear to be working normally but there is a definite pull to the left when braking, the radius arm pivot bushings need to be replaced. Ford says it is okay to reuse the original nylon rear bushing spacer and rear bushing unless excessive wear is found. Torque the radius arm nuts to 80-120 lb. ft. Toe should be also be checked and reset to 1/32 inch toe-in.
If a pull still exists after replacing the radius arm pivot bushings, many aftermarket manufacturers sell offset radius arm bushings which allow you to change caster to eliminate the pull..."
