Those with 5100's @ 2.5...

You know what sucks? Having a set of Duratracs sitting in your garage but you're afraid to put them on, lol

 

yeah, no doubt. I am about to change out my winter tires for some new A/T's as well. I am curious to see how the winters have worn.

 

ok, thanks Chris. My front end is only lifted 1.6". I am amazed that a Toyota dealership wouldn't have aligned it better. Guess I will have to pay them a visit. Do you think the alignment is bad enough that the tire wear will be dramatically imbalanced?

 

wait you guys are going to a toyota dealership for your alignment?

I took my truck in to them when i first purchased it... 3 times and all they did was completely %@*%)$* up my alignment all 3 times.

take it somewhere else.

 

Yeah, no way I'm going the dealer route, especially after this Firestone debacle. I did get the tires put on this morning but I'm going to a shop in the AM that does a lot of off-road vehicles.

 

It strikes me as odd that a garage working exclusively on Toyotas would fail to do less than accurate work on something as common as an alignment. Is it possible that 1.6" of lift on stock UCAs could be enough to make it impossible to keep the Camber down?
I am seriously considering biting the bullet and picking up a set of Light Racing UCAs.

 

Specs from Wednesdays alignment:
Camber - .7/.7
Caster - 1.5/1.7
Toe - 0/.03

Seems to be the best I can get. So, if I were to lower the front to 1.75, would that make enough of a difference to get camber closer to 0?

 

Thanks, Chris. Looks like I have a Sunday project.

 

dont do it! just get new UCA - your not going to burn out tires with those specs
