    I just got my alignment done this morning and couldn't be happier!!

    Camber is 0.3 on both sides
    Left toe is .09 and right toe is .10
    Left Caster is 3.5 and right caster is 3.0

    The caster adjustments are both still set at 0 on the UCA's they just adjusted the camber through the UCA's

    I would hope they focused on caster, camber, then toe as that's how a proper alignment is done. What I was questioning was your "before" and "after" readings; they didn't change. When my alignment was done my caster/camber reading were off and it was noticeable when driving as it wandered a lot. Did you even drive it before the UCA's were installed or was it something that got done at the same time your lift did

    I had at aligned with only the lift and had about .5 degrees of caster and .9 of camber on both sides and toe was still around .1.

    The UCA's just jacked my caster way up and got my camber closer to 0 even though i would have prefered it to be slightly negative.

    BTW i have stock wheels and tires for now
