Darth was sitting a little low in front, local shop wanted to put spacers in even though the camber was well within spec (FWIW, the alignment measuring procedure for these trucks is rather involved when done correctly). Caster was also good. I had a front and rear sway bar set from a 1990 HD F250 I wanted to install, but had not been able to get the brackets off before the truck was scrapped. I was able the get the correct brackets from Green Sales (NOS parts) and install them. I had some much better condition spring rubbers to put on also.
After all that, I went back to the local shop and surprise, the camber and caster were dead in the middle on the tolerance, only thing needed was a toe in adjustment.
Darth's last full alignment was not long after I bought him, probably summer of 1994. A shop in Gloucester County VA that actually has the equipment to bend the axle beams did the job, front tires still wear dead even. It helps that a 1986 F350 2WD has king pins rather than ball joints and they get greased regularly.
