I’ve been installing the Manny reaction arm disc brake kit on the back of the coach with 80 mm calipers on the front and a P30 master cylinder. Attached is the rear alignment I did. I held a laser level on the individual rear hub faces to a target and measured to the frame to check bogie alignment. I also used a straight edge across both hubs and the laser level to check the total bogie alignment. There is so much spring in the bogie arms you have to go way past the alignment point to bend the arms. My question is what’s your opinion? Am I close enough or should I keep bending? I saved a table of the measurements in GMC photos. Thanks, Kirk
