okay, so when my banshee sits, the front wheels lean in towards the fourwheeler haha. also, the steering is kinda rough. would a front end alignment fix this? and how would i do so for future reference?

THe lean-in is good. Should be about 3 degrees on each side. They call that negative camber...It's good for turning corners. You should invest in an angle finder. They sell them at ACE and other home outlet stores. Put a 2X4 against the tire - touching the bottom and top of the tire, then put the angle finder on the 2X4. See what you got...

 

Toe in/out is easy: - use a tape measure and measure from the middle of one tire to the other (has to be the same height on each tire). Then do the same in the rear...Both front and rear tires should be within 1/8th of an inch of each other...Adjust tie rods to get the correct measurement.

 

The whole process will take 10 mins with the right tools. I got mine at ACE for 9$...Saves the guess work!!

How could there be tow on the rears? That would be a bent axle/rim...
