    Can someone point me to Marlin’s alignment spec sheet for the 05+ taco arms? I know it’s on his site, but I’ve been looking for ten min and can’t find it. I saved it on my computer at home and printed it out but forgot to bring it to the alignment shop and my truck is going on the rack in a couple min...

    Thanksssssssss!!!!

    Thanks. I found those - I thought there was a pdf somewhere but I’m sure this is good enough.

    Might be looking for UCAs soon. I'm wondering if the note that JBA has on their website (shown below) applies to all aftermarket UCAs (and the others just don't have the warning printed on their site) or if it's actually just the JBA. I'd rather not change my stock pro wheels.

    Slight rub with cooper st maxx 265/75/16. Kinda think it's from being aired down. Only heard a tire rubbing once in a fast up hill 90* turn but that may have been a fender.

    Love the UCAs no squeaks no clunks.


    What size wheel spacers is any one running with stock wheels(3rd gen OR)and 285s or 255s? Not sure which size I'm going with yet.

    I can completely avoid all rubbing throughout my suspension cycle (full stuff, lock to lock) yet when I’m aired down I’ll rub a little bit. That’s what I’d chalk it up to in your instance as well.

    Yeah this really isn't an issue. I really just want spacers to make up for the loss of track width from the 2.5in of lift.

    Edit. There is one example in the links at the bottom of the page. People also talked about Red and sticky... (or tacky)
