I know this is off-vintage, but still Dodge and 4x4. I have an '84 W250 with Dana 44F front axle. The front tires lean toward each other at the top. There is nowhere near enough slack in the steering joints or knuckles to allow for the amount of tire lean. Some have said that this is normal; that they are made that way, but I suspect the housing is sprung. Putting a level on the brake disc indicates about a half bubble off on each side. It drives ok after I got the toe-in within acceptable limits. What say you guys? The other 4x4 sites don't even respond.
Also, it has an NP435 with PTO openings on both sides. Is this rare? Thanks for anylight you guys can shed on this. Paul H
