Alignment specs different with power steering?
We're getting ready to corner weight and align my chassis next week. I have the alignment specs from the build manual, but I swear I saw an updated set for when using the power assist steering motor. Now I can't find them.
Anyone know if the specs are different with power steering vs what is in the build manual?
Thanks!

Fixed. Nice to be a moderator.
Anywho, for those who are doing PS, well done! It's awesome. Adam, I think we talked about it, but for others, if you live an area like we do but you've got concrete freeways like we do here in California, I would DEFINITELY put a switch on your dash to turn it off. The PS senses input and reacts, therefore those little lines in concrete freeways can have you making unannounced lane changes! Even with the caster changes. Turning it off on the long hauls really helps it stay straight and maintenance free until you hit the off ramp. Then just switch it back on! Don't worry, it will remind you as soon as you try to turn the wheel.
