Front end rebuild

Joediveguy
So I just completed the front end rebuild on my 1981 bronco, AKA, Ugly Betty. New springs, shocks, ball joints and universal joints. All went well, but the wheels hang, or sag down at an angle and are still slanted when it is on the ground. Will the suspension level out once I start driving it?

I'm trying to post pictures but apparently they are too large

Yes, usually the wheels will change angle when you drive it - forward.  Not backward.

On the pics, see the page at Bullnose Forum/Forum FAQ's.
