    Kentucky/Tennesee Bulldoggin' stance, anyone else seen this?

    Joined an 88-98 GM/Chevy Facebook group and have seen a lot of this "bulldogging" on on there. What gives? The most popular is a 20" wheel, 35" tire and 6" front only lift. How in the stink does the alignment shop get the castor setup up right? Most likely have problems with camber too...
