    ^is it just me, or does the camber in the photo make it look like the image has a weird fish-eye effect?

    I never understand putting lifts and bigger tires on these trucks. They rob you of power and gas mileage doesn't it. I personally never lift and put oem size grips on my truck are one size bigger if I cant find oem size tires.

    Or is there a fish eye effect and it's making the camber look strange. Either way, wheels look like they are tucked inwards.

    If there is no fish eye in that photo then yea you def need to get it corrected. Light Racing seems to have the most adjustability for a UCA and tend to be a little cheaper than the others. I would look at their UCAs first if you do indeed have your tires with that sort of camber.

    Looks like this guy did your alignment...LOL!

    On a serious note it looks like you have positive camber. I doubt they took out your UCA's but if they did for some reason double check to see if they put them back on the right side. Did u bring it back talk to the guys who did your lift?

    Your alignment is way off, bring it back to the dealer and ask if they will look at it! With three inches of lift you should have also gone with aftermarket upper control arms.

    That Tough Country stuff (or any spacer lift) is garbage you should've done more research before installing it. Shitty lift = shitty results!!

    Hope you get it figured out!

    I just said screw it and bought a pro comp uca and coilsprings with no spacers but give you the lift. I'm going to change it out and see if that helps

    You probably could've bought a decent lift with the money you already spent on the parts, install and alignments you got done :facepalm:

    I contemplated getting a rough country kit for a while and was extremely happy I have the guys/girls here on TW. Kept me from putting a shitty kit on my 39k truck.

    Have you given thought to what your third set of components will be?
