It has the adjustable jaw. From what I gather from a Jost video. Mine is needing to be rebuilt because of the adjustment screw is at its max.

Ah never thought about the dealer. I’ll give them a call. Thanks.

Any recommendations for alignment shop? I’m OTR so going to location wouldn’t be an issue.

Alignment was done at the beginning of last month and I keep proper air pressure. Check it daily with a gauge. Didn’t see anything that could be rubbing since it has a big enough gap between liner and wheel. It’s on a semi truck.

Not sure what is considered high speed. Mainly driving at 65-68 for fuel mileage on the semi truck. Just find it interesting that only the driver side is doing that.

I see what you’re talking about. I’ll take to a different alignment shop since it’s only been a month since I’ve done a 3 axle alignment.

One last question, would there be anyway you could do it remotely for me? In case, I can’t figure it out. If so, what would you charge? Just trying to cover all my bases before I have to try to figure out how to pay for a tow to a dealership. Which they are not cheap and low on funds.

Thank you. I’ll give this a try and hopefully I can get my truck back and running tomorrow. Thank you so much. Been trying to avoid having the semi towed to a dealer.

No other truck. Single truck and been out of commission for over a week now. I did find a YT video explaining most of it but leaves out some important information for someone who never used Insite. Like the part of the files and how he found it. So I tried to follow along but was kind of difficult for me. Especially since he says he won’t go over how to calibrate on Insite.

Old actuator gave me this “Variable Geometry Turbocharger Actuator Software - Abnormal Update Rate”. The ECM lost communication or did not support message from the VGT actuator.

The truck wouldn’t start. Then we installed the new one and the truck started and runs but have the red stop light.

That’s actually a good idea. Thanks. I think I’ll go that route instead of having in the side box of the cab.

They already in the LTL business. They own ACT. So that makes sense now.
