    Axle shims are actually the RIGHT way to fix the driveline angles.

    I'm going to say a 3° shim is what you want. @foxrcing07 would know better than I would though.

    I would talk to Marie @HeadStrong Off-Road
    The actual geometry of suspension is sometimes out of my ballpark

    Front shocks are being adjusted right now at Sweir Tire in Ripon, my friends shop. Noble motor sports told me they didn’t have a coil over spring compressor, and TCS was busy. So here I am 3/10th of a mile from home :)
    The tech offroads and is doing my alignment as well. DBAAAF2D-9341-469E-B05A-F9410F061C49.jpg

    @Papadave418 how did that shop in Ripon do with adjusting your SPC upper control arms? Did they seem to know how to adjust them?

    Been needing an alignment but been dreading going back to McCoy cause they seem to always want to sell me something I "need" or they (say they) cant do an alignment properly.

    Yeah Raymond knows what he’s doing and understands adjustable UCA’s. They have a nice Hunter laser system, but also real world knowledge of what we are doing with these trucks

    Walk in is fine, I called and showed up 15 mins later, obviously they could get busy. Daniel purchased the shop from his uncle I think, and it’s been there for like seriously 100 years or something crazy
