    @Trident904 just did it a few months back. He has some info on his build thread on the 4runners forum.

    I’ve downloaded some maps with waypoints and stuff since it’s my first time there. Looks like it’s going to be a good time. No rain forecasted and the temps will be perfect.

    Went to firestone to get an alignment after I replaced parts... maxed out adjustments on LCA and tie rods and it’s still off. My last hope is a bent spindle. Otherwise my frame is bent

    take it to a body shop and get the frame looked at before you toss more money at it

    Was it ever in a wreck? If not do you have your print out of the alignment?

    A guy had trouble aligning my truck a while back and asked if it’s ever been wrecked. Said yes, and he said could be that the frame is bent because the passenger side could not get into spec.

    the body shop said the frame was off by .001 inch when they put it on the machine right after I wrecked it, so who knows.

    You're thrust angle is perfect at .2 a bent frame or really fucked suspension the thrust angle would be well over 1

    The one in goose creek is pretty good. One guy has a lifted Tacoma and the other has an FJ
    Might do that
    Yeah... this all started when I hit a big buck at 70mph on I-26. My passenger side was leaning in so far it was almost touching my spindle.

    When I brought it in the right front camber was at 5.0 but I eyeballed it after new LCA and hardware. Front right tie rod is at its max.

    Probably a bent spindle. Those specs don't scream tweaked frame to me but I would have it checked none the less.

    It destroyed all the old original bushings so the problem has been in multiple places. Just trying to get the truck squared away. Good news is I got a lift and been getting a lot of maintenance done on the front end. Rides 1000x better than when I bought it. It had a spacer lift up front with factory bilsteins.

    Anybody in the Greenville area have some camper shell clamps lying around they would sell? I don't have a shell yet, but if I find one on Marketplace or CL it'd be nice to have some clamps ready.
