Sure, you fell better but gone are the hopes of my D35 growing up to be a

When I followed my new '72 Ford 4X4 pick'em up home I, had measure
the tire diagonally to make sure it wasn't dog legged, it looked so bad.

Dog legging was still lurking in the back of my mind too. Back when this
Jeep was still just a fond glimmer in my mind and was only a rolling frame
I hauled it off to a local frame shop because it just didn't _look_ right.
Sure enough, it had been hit in the right front and was off square by an
inch or two (I forget now how much but I recall the operator telling me it
was "a lot".) A few weeks ago when I had it in the local front end shop
for final set-up I warned them that it had been straightened and to watch
for it being off-kilter. The Jeep guy there told me that so far as they
could tell on a 4-wheel alignment it was dead nuts straight.

Really, I'm happier now that I know that the wheels don't track in line
from the factory. It was bugging me.
