    I drive a freightliner cascadia 2013. Abt 1 year ago it was at a shop sitting on jacks when the tech pulled it backwards (while still on jack). After that I find the steering abnormally light. There is no tire wear and all alignment is within specs except for thrust angle. I find it very difficult to drive on icy or snow covered roads...Dry roads seem to be ok. Can you please tell me if thrust angle is adjustable or my only option is to straighten the frame. Thanks in advance
