Hi:

Does anyone have experience with front end alignment on a TD?  I can't
see any obvious provision for camber and caster adjustment.  I have a
copy of a very old manual, which gives alignment specs, but gives no
information on making the adjustment.  Is it simply a matter of
replacing parts if the alignment is out?

In this case, I haven't checked the alignment yet, but I have done some
front end repairs.  I had to replace the spindle on one side -- I
installed the original kingpin into the new spindle, because it was
straight.  I have noticed that the kingpin on the other side is slightly
bent, though the car was in service that way in the past.  

Thanks in advance for whatever help you folks out there can give me.
I'm new to this list, but I like it.  SOL appears to be amazingly well
organized!
