My boggie was so bent in that it wore the edge of the tire that when we stopped in brandon manitoba there were threads showing. Put my spare on and drove to dick patersons where dick using a gadget me made. Bolts and threaded sleeve to move the boggie beyond then hammered the boggie where it curves. Then release the pressure. The boggie moved back but not as bad as prior. Road this way another 6000 miles till we got to jims. Jim has made a unit that acts like a piston moved by pressure from a hand pump. He again moved it out beyond the desired and pounded on the arm to jar the memory then released the pressure. I havent noticed any more wear but continue to keep an eye on it, note that all the time a micrometer and straight edge are used to align the bogie with the rear bogie.
Email or call jim.
Jim had mentioned you might join us for the rolling rally across to detroit then chicago to do Route66
