    886. Planning ahead for that future relentless bumper and a winch. :DHopefully it doesnt beat me to death before then though...

    For now it has 51XX billies (I am going to go try to scrape off some of that black stuff (some sort of sealant like rhino lining) and see if I can see a model #) and the tsb leafs with an aal. After discussing mods with the gf I kind of traded my rearend mod money for the sliders. Which may not be a bad thing. If I am sitting level after the front is done I may leave the rear alone, if I am bulldogging then I'll be looking into the allpro leaf pack I think. If the front end is still too low then...:confused::confused::confused: but I don't think that will be the case.

    Oh and I think those are LR UCA's... I thought Light Racing was the brand, but these say SPC Performance all over them. The online receipt says they are supposed to be LR though and the instructions from SPC say they have the additional caster adjustments: -2 degrees to 2 degrees. I need to research my alignment stuff some though... Don't know it real well...

    After my lift my caster was at -0.6 and it was a darty SOB. Once i got the Camburgs it was at +1.6 and it rides so much better.

    Would you recommend I set it to +2 then take it in and get it aligned from them? I just read a few threads about lots of places not playing with the extra UCA settings.

    Let them know that the caster is adjustable. Any decent shop will do what then can to make the number right.

    I thought they would but saw several posts saying otherwise.

    Apparently LR and SPC are one in the same:

    "COMPANY INFORMATION

    Really? Interesting..

    I felt like my HID hellas were brighter and much better spread. But the 240s like went way farther out.

    Yep. I have seen it a few times now. Thanks. So i looked a little but this morning but basically i want my toe and camber as close to 0 as possible and my caster somewhere around 2+ but below 3 so that when i go to 33's i wont rub as much as the back of the wheel well, right?
