    I am not trying to be disrespectful here, but I am always puzzled how someone would be surprised by having the wheel jerk going over bumps after changing the suspension geometry so much. So many are shocked when this happens when it should be expected. Everything is a compromise.

    I think most people install the lift for looks but do not realize the problems down the road. just saying I would never do it especially on a new truck.

    You need WAY more caster for that big of a lift. You need upgraded upper control arms.

    Four four one

    I had the 6” ready lift with -18 wheels
    Didn’t have this wheel jerk issue.

    ready lift is a pavement princess lift so i did learn!

    the UCA’S why? RC confirmed I only need change them out if i got their 3” kit. Also Toyota agreed.
    Just what i heard.

    Do you think going to -38 could be the problem?

    My coworker has the same exact wheels the only difference he has no lift and he has none of these issues i am having.

    Which tells me lifting it 6” having everything stretching then this big offset is what is causing it.

    Someone is selling high bump steer kits for $600 no returns accepted!! Do not want to buy this and after the work it does not solve the issue.

    I’m confused if i should find a less offset wheel or just adjust more camber
