Toe specs for K5?

[offroadcowboy]

Anyone have the toe specs for a K5. I finally got my 1 tons swapped in and steering all hooked up . I took it for an inagural off road journey and everything seemed fine ... but when I took it for the on road inaguration I had the dw something fierce. I am replacing one rod end and am going to set my toe but I am not sure what the specs are.Any help is appreciated. I have an 87 35"on 10.5 " rims ,60,14,lockers f/r,x over, 6-7" lift.Thanks

Part time 4 wheel drive is 0.12" . Full time is 0 degree.

The tires need to be about 1/4" toe in. 1/4" closer together in the front then in the back. You may need to play with this number a little as D60's are very picky about there toe.

I set mine to 3/16" and the tires seem to wear even with no scrubbing, no death wobble either but I added some shim washers on top of the king pin springs.

DW with a 60 is usually due to worn kingpin bushings/springs.

Thanks for the info on toe in guys . If that doesnt fix the dw I will be doing a kingpin spring and bushing kit and and maybe some shorter shackles to help with the caster angle.

that 60 had the kingpins and springs replaced when we put the locker, gears, and x-over steering on. just for your info.
