Alignment
Professional alignment is Required. Alignment instructions are for a basic setup to allow you to get
the trailer to a professional alignment shop. You may also set all cam bolts to the same orientation.
Thrust angles
Choose a point on the front tip of the tongue. Measure from that location to the center of the
spindle. (B) Do this for left and right sides. This measurement should be equal.
Set toe
Use a straight edge or other long straight object. Lay it across the tire. Measure from the edge to
the frame of the trailer(A) Measurement should be the same on the front and the rear of the tire.
Use alignment cam to adjust. Try to get the front about 1/16” less than the rear. This gives a slight
toe in and will help track better. Measurements should be take at the same distance from the tire
front and rear.
Camber
Using a camber gauge, set camber to 0°, then recheck toe. Some may set camber at a very low
degree to help trailering.
Torque cam bolt nuts to 165 ft. lb.
