    Honestly my brain is a little burnt so the dude confused me. What i gather is this is pretty close, and i should be OK. I looked at a lot of threads on here for alignments with 3 in lift. Just getting a feel of what TW thinks and any pointers if something is off?

    Called back and asked the tech is pretty good got the caster to 2.3, camber at .4/.3, toe at 0. my LCA are the ones that are maxed for adjustment on getting the camber correct. Sounds about right?

    that makes more sense. if you had an adjustable UCA, like SPC, this would be the point at which you loosen the giant nut on top of the ball joint and slide it inwards, zeroing out the camber. that will result in slightly positive toe, but you have plenty of adjustment there for them to zero that back out.

    that being said, I've run with a worse alignment that what you currently have for a long time, and been just fine.

    not really. the LCA adjustment comes from the cam bolts that attach them to the frame. if you really wanted to get into it, you could cut off the cam tabs, slightly extend the hole, and then weld on new tabs a little further out (talking a fraction of an inch), but it's a lot of work to fix a pretty decent alignment.

    I went with a Bushnell trs-25 with a utg mid rise on the X95. Not a permanent solution but had really good reviews.
    The X95 also has f/r iron sights built into the top rail that lay down flat when not in use.

    Heck ya. I'm trying to keep this one super light. My SAR18 is overly modified and on the border of not being much of a cqb.
    Need to check to see if anyone has a razorback rail though...this rail is really low.

    I have an extra 45° rail if you need. Been clearing out some parts sitting in my box.
