I (like many others) have discovered uneven tire wear on my first annual CI so I
decided to take alignment measurements before moving ahead with any remedies. My airplane seems more squirrely than others as well.
I am now suspect of my right gear leg due to the results of the measurements below taken in 3-point attitude.
Left Gear:
1.0 degree toe-in
+2 degrees camber
Right Gear:
2.38 degrees toe-out (yes toe-out)
+2 degrees camber
Also the right gear is 2/10" further back (measured to the tail) than the right gear. As a note, I did not drill/install the gear on this aircraft.
Could the right leg be mal-formed? Is it too far out to shim?
