Milcommoguy, I didn't go as far as you did, wow , that was a complete overhaul. Guestimated on the shim measured adjustment, I started out with 2.5 negative camber on the right front. I added 3- 1/8" shims and ended up with .5 positive camber on the first try. The left ft. was at .5 already, so I left it alone. Caster was not a factor as truck does not pull when driving, no wandering all over the road and it wont wear your tires out. I will drive it for a while and see how they wear. If it wears on tires, I will dive back in and adjust as necessary. I do all the work on my truck (auto/truck tech 30 plus years) and I completely agree with you on the judgement $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ of a Humvee owner. If I didn't know how to work on a vehicle, there is NO WAY I could afford a Humvee. I went through it upon purchase, fixed/repaired/replaced all worn/leaky/squeaky/worn//broke/missing parts and made it safe and reliable. Painted it myself also. The hardest thing to learn was the cooling system. Once I learned that, these are really not difficult to service/repair. Patience is the most important tool you can have being a Humvee owner- the second is this web site. Learned a lot from here. I would drive my truck anywhere without a thought-- with tools of course lol
