macattack Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 just wanting to know if my mr688s should have one or two wedges? i believe the original owner replaced the pass side front spring and may have not replaced the spring wedge on that side. either forgot or never realized there may be a wedge. unfortunately the original owner is deceased.the driver side has a wedge, but not on the pass side. my question is can i take a measurement anywhere to see if there should be one on the other side.thanks gang.

theakerstwo Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 That has to be checked by a alignment so no way any one can tell you what you need.That will set the caster on front axle.

41chevy Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 To get the measurements you need a caster / camber gage .

Maddog13407 Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 should have a wedge both sides no matter what actually to keep things straight. usually a second wedge is added for camber adjustment Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/26860-front-spring-wedges/#findComment-134215 Share on other sites More sharing options...
