2003 Ram 3500 Alignment Specifications
The Dodge Ram 3500 came in several two-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive trims. All two-wheel-drive trims except for those with a 160-inch wheelbase shared the same alignment specs, as did all four-wheel-drive trims -- again, except for those with the 160-inch wheelbase. The rear alignment was not adjustable on any trim of the 2003 Ram 3500.
Caster
The caster angle on the front end of all two-wheel-drive 2003 Ram pickup trucks with a 160-inch wheelbase can range from plus-3.5 degrees to plus-5.0 degrees, with the ideal setting being +4.25 degrees. The caster angle on all other two-wheel-drive trims can range from +3.5 degrees to +4.5 degrees, with a preferred setting of +4.0 degrees and a cross tolerance of +0.4 degrees.
The caster angle on the front end of four-wheel-drive 2003 Ram pickup trucks with a 160-inch wheelbase can range from +4.0 degrees to +5.5 degrees, with the ideal setting being +4.75 degrees. The caster angle on the front end of all other four-wheel-drive trims can range from +3.75 degrees to +5.25 degrees, with a preferred setting of +4.0 degrees and a cross tolerance of +0.4 degrees.
Camber
The camber angle on all two-wheel-drive trims should fall between -0.5 degrees and +0.5 degrees, with zero being the ideal setting with a cross tolerance of +0.6 degrees.
The camber angle on all four-wheel-drive trims should fall between -0.25 degrees and +0.75 degrees, with +0.25 being the ideal setting with a cross tolerance of +0.5 degrees.
Toe-in
The toe-in on all two-wheel-drive trims can range from +0.1 degrees to +0.3 degrees. But +0.1 degrees is the ideal setting.
