Trivia Again. Alignment. What Does This Part Do?
And this is for newbees, please! This part(s) is an essential component of a rear-wheel and a four-wheel alignment. What function does it play in alignment? And how? What is the most common cause of inability to use this function to do a proper four-wheel alignment? And how do you know IF you did indeed get a "four-wheel" alignment?

Um, without giving the answer away, 73-LS-4, take another look at that pic!
You could add this question as well:
Is this part installed in an original big block or small block car?

I was posing the question to the newer members, I put that question up becouse there is an obvious clue in the picture for those that know the difference. I thought my post might get misinterpreted as I didn't know the answer after I posted it, but oh well :lol:

Paul, you didn't give me time to answer! I am replacing the strut rods with VB adjustable type now that the differential is out for a rebuild.
How DO you know if you got a 4 wheel alignment besides taking the shops word for it?

The small block has the yokes w/ the C-shaped things that go through it. The BB's have the yokes w/ the saddles on them . HOWEVER 82's and 80-81 sticks had those too (BB halfshafts)

Glen,
Here is what I posted several days ago. I guess that I am too impatient!
