Alignment?

Does anyone know what exactly they do to align a coach. I know different chassis require different adjustments. I'm curious about the Ford F53 chassis. Is it just a toe setting because of being a straight axle design?

Yes, a good alignment should include it all. Just got mine done in Louisiana by a shop I knew did good work. I asked about weight load on the axle and he said weight wouldn't change settings much with straight axle and leaf spring design. After some thought on it, I had to agree.
