I have a 98 expidition xlt rear wheel drive 4.6L v8. For some reason I can't keep the front wheels in alignment. Control arms and bushings are good. Ball joints are good. Tie rods appear to be fine. Shocks are new. I take it in to get the alignment done and a day or 2 later the toe angle on the passenger wheel will be pointed way out. Everytime. I'm going through tires and gas and money like you wouldn't believe. Help?

Similar issue with car drifting to the left. Previous install of control arms were backwards. They are marked left and right....no way can they align correctly if installed reversed!

Good luck!

Try installing a camber kit?
