    Awesome, I had figured I couldnt have changed anything just by moving them around. I just got it aligned a couple weeks ago. Gonna have to go back to that place and have em do it properly this time I guess. The positive camber is ridiculous on the driver's side

    the vertical bolt in the top of the rack plus the long horizontal bolt should force the correct/same position.

    you might check your ball joints and tie rod ends and lca bushings if you are pulling.

    also if your alignment bushings are frozen they might not tell you and just charge you to align it the best they can

    My truck came minus the windshield washer apparatus. All I have is a 4 prong plug and a hose hanging down in front of the right front tire. Would someone please tell me what I am missing. I got a res but it has a 2 prong plug on the pump and a hole in the bottom. I guess the hole is for a sensor which I suppose is what the 4 prong plug is about but I don't know what parts I need to hook it all up. Is there a connector pigtail that hooks the pump and sensor up to the 4 prong plug?
    Thanks for any info

    Checked all those things today as well, they were all nice and tight. I had thought about the alignment cams being frozen up, but the LCAs are only 2 years old from when I got my frame replaced, Seems hard to believe they'd be frozen that quickly.

    I have a slight clunk that i notice when i turn right fairly tight and fast.
    I heard it earlier when i backed up and turned sharply at the same time, first time ive heard it this way and it was fairly loud.

    Steering rack? Should i worry about it?

    It is in one of the rack mounts. Or at least mine is. I found it but I don't see any way of stopping it.

    Ever since I put my bumper on my truck it's clunk city, driving me crazy because I see no reason why my bumper would cause it. My steering rack used to clunk on turns too, put some new poly bushings in it and it's quiet now amazingly. But intensified the other clunks that are driving me even more crazy now because they're like blown strut level loud.
