I agree with Red 70, you can make almost any car handle, you might have t undo all of your changes to get it back in the trailer, but it will behave more to your liking. Do you have scales, or can you get it on a set, I don't consider that a cure all, but it is a place to start. What are your front axle angles, you really have to just sit back and eyeball the thing, does it look right, or not. BTW, if you have the extra change, USPS offers shipping scales, on their website, 330# I believe, DRO on a cord, seems like I paid less than $70.00 ea for mine, they work for me. I'd get a friend or 2, and spend an hr or 2, just looking at it, is it too high, maybe the bars, or one of them is binding, a shock with a tight place in it, you can find out an awful lot, and only spend some time in the shop, just mentally dialing it in, and you didn't even have to load it up. Besides, it's a good learning experience. Good luck! Bob
