I was going to hold my answer until I could figure out what calibre truck hunting took but then I
realized you were talking about the other kind. Answer involves voodoo and black magic but it helps if the truck is in square ie the axle centers, wheel contact points and taper, and wheel
roundness are all damn close. The Amfleet cars hunt something fierce and it seems a wheel slide
will put one of those things into a shimmy. Anyway, the truck weight vs the car weight ie unsprung
is critical as is the truck pin center to coupled point distance.
