Ken B.,

I just got off the phone with Ken F. and I got it somewhat wrong or right
depends on how you look at it.

Ken said he sets up the coach level. He starts by setting the rear ride
height so that a line extending from the center of rear axle spindle going
forward intersects with the center of the two bogie pivots and through the
center of the middle axle spindle.

He then adjusts the torsion bars to set the frame level.

He says that this will "just about" make the front axles level or the inner
CV joints will be a bit higher than the outer as long as the engine mounts
are not shot.

You probably heard correctly since Emery stated the same thing. Both of
these people are very knowledgeable on the GMC and people I trust. I would
just like to see this in writing from GM.
