Looking for alignment specs for a cuda with a 340 and radial tires. Any help would be great. Thanks.

I run as much positive caster as I can get.Usually you need the Moog offset bushing in upper arms to get it positive.they install opposite of the instructions though.About 1/2 camber and about 1/16 toe.The factory specs arent for radials.Rocky

My understanding is that the original specs were not designed for radial tires and so I use a SLIGHTLY more aggressive alignment for my driver.

Original:
.5 degree positive camber - .75 degree positive caster - 1/8 " toe-in

What I use:
.25 negative camber - 1.5 degree positive caster and 1/16 to 1/8" toe-in

Here is a good link:

That sounds good & I would install the Moog offset UCA bushings with the arrow to the inside on the rear bushing on each side to get additional positive caster
