I have a 92 toyota sas ex cab. 5.5 lift springs and boomer rang shackles. I just replaced the draglink ends. Im going to replace the tie rod ones soon. The problem Ive had for awhile is I wear the inner tread off the tires. I need to fix this of course. Any thoughts, yes I will get a alignment when I replace those parts

it needs an alignment simple as that

It's SAS'ed so the only thing they can change with an alignment is the toe.

If you're wearing out only the inside tread on your tires, your axle housing could be bent.

Actually sitting in the driveway it looks good as for camber, i did a quick tape measure and the front is like 51 inchs and the rear is 50 so its toed out bad. the inner thread is wearing

That'll do it! I think you actually need a very small amount of toe-in to make it track straight....

I dont know too much about this but it could also be balance issues too.

it is excessive toe out.. tire balance would have nothing to do with it unless it was cupped

it is suppose to be toed in 1/16 to 1/8 in and it will start wearing good
