    I'm running stock UCA's with 881 OME coils. Need to get a realignment but last time my numbers came in my camber and toe were somewhat good while my caster suffered. But what you need to look for is
    Camber: Get close to 0
    Caster: Around 2
    Toe: 0
    That's what I'm telling my alignment shop next time when I get another one.

    No sir, no bro lean here....or maybe I just haven't noticed. I'll look tomorrow, I feel like I'm dying right now. Damn cold

    Shoot, I might just go back this weekend. Lets work those free alignments! Lol

    I appreciate the feedback gents.....I'll chime in once I get this all squared away

    That is part of the problem, but not all of it. I'm guessing that the 2nd shop (Big O??) tried to get the caster as high as possible, which is quite difficult with some lift and stock UCAs. They did it a little bit but compromised the camber in the process. Without an aftermarket UCA, about the best you can hope for are the numbers you got at the first place you went to (red and green in their print out). So in that sense, the stock UCAs are part of the problem.

    The other part is finding a competent technician. That second place left your front end a mess. Maybe you got the new guy that had little or no real world experience working on a lifted truck. :notsure:

    If it was me, I think I would install the new TREs first and the other components you got. Unless you can't do that right away and this is a DD and you have to put a lot of miles on it.

    How much lift do you have? Is it Toytec Eibach coils? Or is it OME stuff?

    Im running toytec eibachs...

    I'm gonna take her back on Saturday. I don't have time yet to swap out my parts. To be honest tho, it drives alot better than it with the first alignment from toyota. Very strange.

    I guess I should start looking into some UCA's

    Terrific! Good call on the 882s, I need to ditch my 881s and get some of those my front has dropped a bit since adding weight to it.

    I have about 200 pounds of armor up front so I'm hoping I still end up with 2.5 inch of lift
