Wanting to do a quicky front end alignment on the 83 d-150 had the complete front end apart ... The bed for the truck is morresville Indiana about a 60 mile round trip. I want to have the bed on before paying a shop for a good alignment. Any tips on this?

You can do a quickie toe in check running stringlines from the back wheels John. Toe in is most important starting out.

so loop a string around the inside and outside of the back tire to the inside and outside of the front and make the string width the same at the back as it is at the front...

I'll give that a shot.
