Hey Scott--- "Flying Brick" a good one! I think in your situation I think I would put offset bushings only on the back position. I think the Revcons I messed with would react @ the same on specifications. The first big filter in sortingan alignment is seeing how far the caster usually on the pass. front wheel. If I could dial in each side to what I wanted, things would be much better. I can usually get 3 deg. with standard bushings but then there's that 1! We did that on Arch's coach way back

Subject: [GMCnet] Alignment Question
Greetings,
So, I have to replace most of the rubber components on the front end of my Revcon, yea, the GMC's big brother. :p I am planning of replacing the lower control arm bushings with the urethane version but I just don't know if I will need the upper bushings to have that extra offset adjustability.
I tried to do some reading on your alignment specs but it's tough to get a good idea if your specs would work on my Revcon. Yea, I know, it's very different but I'm hoping the collective knowledge here can help.
If it turns out that the increased offset bushings aren't necessary, would you recommend going all urethane?
Some Revcon specs that may help. Total weight: 7100 lbs as it sits now.
25.5' feet in total, wheelbase - 185".
Any advice you can dish out is appreciated.
Scott
The Flying Brick
