    Damn, looks like they aligned it backwards! lol Those caster numbers should be what you have AFTER the alignment! Go back and tell them you want to keep those caster numbers and THEN adjust the camber and toe. Looks like they tried to bring you back to factory spec numbers.

    Here’s pics of the gap sitting straight. Can’t even fit a 2x4 block in that gap in it.

    There should be a bigger gap at the rear of the tire if the caster numbers are higher. Take it back to the alignment shop and tell em what you need. A competent one should be able to keep your original caster numbers and adjust camber and toe around it.

    Damn they dont know what they are doing over there. Id just take it Toyota at this point. Thats where i get my alignments. Hoover Toyota does a great job on alignments especially with my aftermarket UCA. They said they get a high volume of modified trucks in their service department usually.

    Price is like $75 bucks but i always get a 5% discount for some reason lol

    Sunny King here does the same. Last time I was in there, there was a kid with a full Elka suspension, TC UCAs and 285s. He said that they did a great alignment on his truck. $79.99 for an alignment at Sunny King.
