Chris, thanks for the info, but I've decided to just let it sit until 
tomorrow morning, when it can be alligned professionally.  I was just 
wondering how it could be that far out of whack when we counted the exact 
number of turns it took to take the old ones off, and screwed the new ones on 
that exact amount of turns.  I got them at Auto Zone, special ordered.  Oh 
well, allignment tomorrow at 9 a.m.
