Hey guys, I'm new here, and I have a question about my GF's 08 Ram 1500. It's a technical question, so if I'm posting in the wrong area, please feel free to let me know where to post or move this thread if you can.
I don't have the VIN or know the exact option set, but it's pretty basic with a 4.7L V8.
The problem feels like the rear wheels don't point at the front wheels, and is only really noticeable on turns. Especially right turns. A clover-leaf style on-ramp has gotten pretty scary a couple of times, and at reasonable speed and not much power applied. We're both car people apart from her owning this truck for about three years, though I used to drive a '99 Ranger. I remember that it wasn't always great in turns under power, but it was nowhere near this bad.
Is there such a thing as a rear wheel alignment on these trucks, or a way to check it? I suppose it could be the front alignment just being pretty far out of spec., but that's really not the way it feels driving it. Anybody ever have a situation like this?
Thanks!
