So, I have a stock '21 Power Wagon with 35" BFGS on stock factory beadlock rims.
I put the tires on at 250 miles on the truck. Truck now has 3485 miles.
I started seeing unusual wear on the outer edge of the front tires. I also had a vibration in the steering wheel between 65 and 70 MPH.
So I decided to take the truck to my alignment guy and have him make adjustements to the Thuren specs.
So the read out shows that the factory toe setting was way out of spec. Also the castor was beyond the Thuren spec.
So after the alignment was complete, road test has no vibration at 65 to 70. I rotated the tires front to back before the alignment so I will be able to tell if there is still a wear issue.
Here is the alignment sheet so you can see how far out it was from the factory.
