Is it possible for my front end alignment to be out by 1"...

....Please help! Is it possible for my front end to be out of alignment by
1"??? When I measure from the front of the front rim and then measure
from the rear of the front rim my front measurment is 1" longer.....
Thanks a bunch everyone ... Bill...

p.s, oh and for all you 'your on the wrong post people', I did post this on
the 'suspension site' but no response due to what I feel is lack of
volume as we just got a have some alignment pro's here {or at least
someone else who HIT A CURB LIKE I DID ...........

If you hit a curb, sure. Replace your spindle and you should be fine.

Anything is possible if you hit a curb. Take it to a shop to have it correctly measured.

.....Thank You Spinner & Shoebox . I'll take a look at the spindle tomorrow
& then hit the front end shop on Monday {'hit' the front end shop? Woops,
may be I should say "drive in to the front end shop??? .... Thanks again guys, Bill......
ps, if I have to replace a spindle? Why not just replace TWO spindles & go to the LS1 spindles so I'll be ready for the C5 upgrade??? he,he,he, something good
could just happen from my 'curb experience', huh???
