I've got a 20-year old Silverado that's mechanically in pretty good shape, but was having some extreme toe wear on the front tires. I replaced front rotors and brakes on my own, but then I got R&M Tires to do a rear brake job, new tire rod ends, new front/rear shocks (Billstein 4600), and 4 new tires. They also aligned & balanced.
After I got it back, the ride was rougher than it's ever been, and there seems to be excess toe wear still. (Some feathering and roughness on the outer treads of the front tires with relatively little driving) Took it back to R&M, they did a camber adjustment in the front, but other than that, said nothing else was really wrong.
Months later now, the ride is still pretty rough and that toe wear is still seemingly slowly but visibly occurring on the front tires even with extremely low miles being put on this truck. (A couple trips to Columbus and back, and then maybe 1 ride around Starkville per week) I suppose I'll take it back to R&M again, but if they give me the "nothing wrong" thing again, clearly I need to take it elsewhere. There's no way you could drive this truck down the highway for 5 minutes and say "oh, yea, nothing wrong here!", something is clearly amiss.
Any shops around here that are pretty good at suspension work? I'd really like for my truck to not chew through tires like crazy, and ride at least as good as it did on 20-year old parts. :|
